Abstract
For failure interval determination, a determination module determines a failure interval for transactions in a transaction queue based on a number of processed transactions. A transaction timeout module fails a first transaction in response to the first transaction not processing within the failure interval.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- a computer readable storage medium storing program instructions executable by the processor to:
- determine a failure interval for transactions in a transaction queue as a function of an inverse of a number of processed transactions, wherein the transaction queue stores transactions prior to processing by a first storage system;
- and
- fail a first transaction in response to the first transaction not processing within the failure interval.
A method for transaction queue maintenance comprising:
- determining, by use of processor, a failure interval for transactions in a transaction queue as a function of an inverse of a number of processed transactions, wherein the transaction queue stores transactions prior to processing by a first storage system;
- and
- failing a first transaction in response to the first transaction not processing within the failure interval.
A computer program product for transaction queue maintenance, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therein, the program code readable/executable by a processor to:
- determine a failure interval for transactions in a transaction queue as a function of an inverse of a number of processed transactions, wherein the transaction queue stores transactions prior to processing by a first storage system;
- and
- fail a first transaction in response to the first transaction not processing within the failure interval.
