I'm not suggesting that Infinispan should change the TM settings, I'm
just wondering if there's a difference between using synchronization in
Infinispan and disabling recovery completely (or using an in-memory
transaction log) from the user's point of view.
Actually, that might be irrelevant if using synchronization can lead to
stale locks in Infinispan. If the commit command fails and doesn't release
the locks, how will the user be able to find out that there are stale locks
and release them?
Infinispan detects the failed commit and sends a rollback command. Only if
this fails as well, the locks stay unreleased.
The problem is just that application thinks it has succeeded while the
transaction may have been rolled back (in Infinispan way, the JTA
transaction was already committed).
Ok, maybe I was overreacting a bit :)
But like you said, the rollback command can fail as well. True, the
rollback doesn't have to write anything to the cache stores, so it's less
likely to fail, but we should still consider the possibility.
