Transactions imported and prepared

Use this page to review transactions imported and prepared but not yet committed.

Under normal circumstances no administrative action is required for any of the transactions listed on this page. This page lists those transactions that are in a prepared state, but are being directed by an external transaction manager (for example, another WebSphere appserver) from a transaction context that has been propagated.

Under aberrant circumstances, however, an administrator can configure WebSphere Application Server to resolve the transactions listed on this page independent of the external transaction manager. (This step might be necessary if, for example, the external transaction manager has become unavailable for an unacceptable period of time.)

If the completion direction (commit or rollback) chosen administratively differs from the eventual direction of the external transaction manager, then the overall outcome of the transaction is not atomic and data corruption can result.

To view this console page, click Servers > Application Servers [Content pane] server_name > [Container Settings] Container Services > Transaction Service > Runtime > Imported prepared transactions - Review.
