Remote unit of work

 

The remote unit of work facility provides for the remote preparation and processing of SQL statements.

An activation group at system A can connect to an application server at system B. Then, within one or more units of work, that activation group can process any number of static or dynamic SQL statements that reference objects at B. After ending a unit of work at B, the activation group can connect to an application server at system C, and so on.

Most SQL statements can be remotely prepared and processed with the following restrictions:

• All objects referenced in a single SQL statement must be managed by the same application server.

• All of the SQL statements in a unit of work must be run by the same application server.

• Activation group states
  An activation group is in one of three states at any time.
