XA Introduction

Berkeley DB can be used as an XA-compliant resource manager. The XA implementation is known to work with the Tuxedo(tm) transaction manager.

The XA support is encapsulated in the resource manager switch db_xa_switch, which defines the following functions: 

__db_xa_close     Close the resource manager.
__db_xa_commit    Commit the specified transaction.
__db_xa_complete  Wait for asynchronous operations to
                  complete.
__db_xa_end       Disassociate the application from a
                  transaction.
__db_xa_forget    Forget about a transaction that was heuristically
                  completed. (Berkeley DB does not support heuristic
                  completion.)
__db_xa_open      Open the resource manager.
__db_xa_prepare   Prepare the specified transaction.
__db_xa_recover   Return a list of prepared, but not yet
                  committed transactions.
__db_xa_rollback  Abort the specified transaction.
__db_xa_start     Associate the application with a
                  transaction.

The Berkeley DB resource manager does not support the following optional XA features:

The Tuxedo System is available from BEA Systems, Inc.
