Remote unit of work

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

An activation group at computer server A can connect to an application server at computer server 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 computer server 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.
