Abstract
In a message replication environment, instances of a message volume are hosted by message systems. Each message system exchanges condition information with the other message systems indicative of the health of the volume instance hosted by the message system. Each message system then determines independently from the other message systems whether or not the message volume is sufficiently protected. In the event that the message volume is insufficiently protected, a protection action can be initiated.
