Hi,

MQ Workflow is not providing transaction support. So when I am trying to close a work item, it gets closed and after that if there is any exception in the application those changes are getting rolled back as they are all DB updates and DB2 provides transaction support.
After this, the application shows workitem as incomplete but the workitem is no longer available in worklist.
Can someone suggest a work around for this problem.

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

My suggestion is call first all DB Updates and then call Workflow calls to close workitem. If some exception occures in application or DB rolled back, then do not call workflow calls to close workitem.In that way we can avoid your problem. If you do not get any problem in application or DB updates then call the closing the workitem in MQ Workflow.

I know this is not ur permanent solution but it helps. We are following same like We will call application stuff first any DB Updates/Inserts and later check-in the workitem.

Cheers,
sanath

How are you integrating with DB2? Have you written a UPES implementation, have you written your own client, or are you using the fat or Web client? UPES implementations are MQ programs - which provides transaction coordination support with DB2. If you have written a client implementation, you might want to consider changing to a UPES since there is much less overhead in WF (no need to logon and refresh worklists and issue check-out/check-in).

Thanx Sanath,

But we have one more problem there.
In our implementation we are using IBM Content Manager
and IBM Directory server also which also do not support XA transaction.
There are some transactions in which all these are involved.

There is a problem when all these tools are involved.


Thanx in Advance
