Distributed transactions can take place in an environment where an external transaction manager coordinates transaction execution using a specific protocol, such as X/Open XA. Adaptive Server supports transactions using the CICS, Encina, TUXEDO, and MSDTC transaction managers through the DTM XA interface to Adaptive Server.
Adaptive
Server with the DTM XA interface
provides features that were previously part of the XA-Server
product. The XA-Server product is not required
and is not included with Adaptive Server. See the XA Interface Integration Guide for CICS, Encina, and TUXEDO for
information about the DTM XA interface.
