As described in <a class="xref" href="permmessages.html" title="Permanent Message Handling">Permanent Message Handling</a>,
|
|||
|
messages are marked permanent if they contain database
|
|||
|
modifications that should be committed at the replica.
|
|||
|
DB's replication code decides if it must flush its
|
|||
|
transaction logs to disk depending on whether it receives
|
|||
|
sufficient permanent message acknowledgments from the
|
|||
|
participating replicas. More importantly, the thread
|
|||
|
performing the transaction commit blocks
|
|||
|
until it either receives enough acknowledgments, or the
|
|||
|
acknowledgment timeout expires.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The Replication Manager is fully capable of managing permanent messages
|
|||
|
for you if your application requires it (most do).
|
|||
|
Almost all of the details of this are handled by the
|
|||
|
Replication Manager for you. However, you do have to set some policies
|
|||
|
that tell the Replication Manager how to handle permanent messages.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
There are two things that you have to do:
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<div class="itemizedlist">
|
|||
|
<ul type="disc">
|
|||

<li>
|
|||

<p>
|
|||
|
Determine how many acknowledgments
|
|||
|
must be received by the master.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
</li>
|
|||
|
<li>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Identify the amount of time that
|
|||
|
replicas have to send their
|
|||
|
acknowledgments.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
</li>
|
|||
|
</ul>
|
|||

|

<div class="sect2" lang="en" xml:lang="en">

|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You identify permanent message policies using the
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<span>
|
|||
|
<code class="classname">ReplicationManagerAckPolicy</code>
|
|||
|
class which you pass to the environment
|
|||
|
using the
|
|||
|
<code class="methodname">EnvironmentConfig.setReplicationManagerAckPolicy</code>
|
|||
|
method.
|
|||
|
</span>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note that you can set permanent message
|
|||
|
policies at any time during the life of the
|
|||
|
application.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The following permanent message policies are available when you use
|
|||
|
the Replication Manager:
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
|
|||
|
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The following list mentions <span class="emphasis"><em>electable peer</em></span>
|
|||
|
several times. This is simply another environment that can be
|
|||
|
elected to be a master (that is, it has a priority greater than 0).
|
|||
|
Do not confuse this with the concept of a peer as used for client
|
|||
|
to client transfers. See <a class="xref" href="c2ctransfer.html" title="Client to Client Transfer">Client to Client Transfer</a> for more information on client
|
|||
|
to client transfers.

<p>

No permanent message acknowledgments are required. If
|
|||
|
this policy is selected, permanent message handling is
|
|||
|
essentially "turned off." That is, the master will
|
|||
|
never wait for replica acknowledgments. In this case,
|
|||
|
transaction log data is either flushed or not strictly
|
|||
|
depending on the type of commit that is being performed
|
|||
|
(synchronous or asynchronous).

At least one replica must acknowledge the permanent

<code class="literal">ReplicationManagerAckPolicy.ONE_PEER</code>
|

</p>
|

<p>
|

At least one electable peer must acknowledge the permanent

message within the timeout period.

|
<p>
|
|||
|
All replicas must acknowledge the message within
|
|||
|
the timeout period. This
|
|||
|
policy should be selected only if your replication
|
|||
|
group has a small number of replicas, and those replicas
|
|||
|
are on extremely reliable networks and servers.

<p>
|

|
All currently connected replication clients must
|
|||
|
acknowledge the message. This policy will invoke the
|
|||
|
<code class="literal">DB_EVENT_REP_PERM_FAILED</code> event if
|
|||
|
fewer than a quorum of clients acknowledged during that
|
|||
|
time.

<code class="literal">ReplicationManagerAckPolicy.ALL_PEERS</code>

</p>
|

|
<p>
|
|||
|
All electable peers must acknowledge the message within the
|
|||
|
timeout period. This
|
|||
|
policy should be selected only if your replication
|
|||
|
group is small, and its various environments
|
|||
|
are on extremely reliable networks and servers.

|||
|
<code class="literal">ReplicationManagerAckPolicy.QUORUM</code>
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
A quorum of electable peers must acknowledge the message within the timeout period.
|
|||
|
A quorum is reached when acknowledgments are received from the minimum number
|
|||
|
of environments needed to ensure that the record remains durable
|
|||
|
if an election is held. That is, the master wants to hear from enough
|
|||
|
electable replicas that they have committed the record so that if an election
|
|||
|
is held, the master knows the record will exist even if a new master is selected.

</ul>

<p>

By default, a quorum of electable peers must must acknowledge a permanent
|

|
message in order for it considered to have been successfully
|
|||
|
transmitted.

The permanent message timeout represents the
|
|||
|
maximum amount of time the committing thread
|
|||
|
will block waiting for message
|
|||
|
acknowledgments. If sufficient
|
|||
|
acknowledgments arrive before this timeout has
|
|||
|
expired, the thread continues operations as
|
|||
|
normal. However, if this timeout expires, the
|
|||
|
committing thread flushes its transaction log
|
|||
|
buffer before continuing with normal
|
|||
|
operations.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
You set the timeout value using
|
|||
|
<code class="methodname">Environment.setReplicationTimeout()</code>.
|
|||
|
You pass this method the
|
|||
|
<code class="methodname">ReplicationTimeoutType.ACK_TIMEOUT</code>
|
|||
|
constant and a timeout value in microseconds.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
For example:
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<pre class="programlisting"> dbenv.setReplicationTimeout(ReplicationTimeoutType.ACK_TIMEOUT, 100); </pre>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
This timeout value can be set at anytime during the
|
|||
|
life of the application.

For illustration purposes, we will now update
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<code class="literal">RepQuoteExampleGSG</code>
|
|||
|
such that it requires only one acknowledgment from
|
|||
|
a replica on transactional commits. Also, we will give
|
|||
|
this acknowledgment a 500 microsecond timeout
|
|||
|
value. This means that our application's main
|
|||
|
thread will block for up to 500 microseconds waiting
|
|||
|
for an acknowledgment. If it does not receive at
|
|||
|
least one acknowledgment in that amount of time,
|
|||
|
DB will flush the transaction logs to disk
|
|||
|
before continuing on.
|

</p>
|

<p>

This is a very simple update. We can perform the
|

|
entire thing in
|

|
|

|
<code class="methodname">RepQuoteExampleGSG.init()</code>
|

immediately after we set the application's priority

and before we open our environment handle.
