Abstract

A technique for synchronizing operations in a transaction processing system includes identifying, by a first recovery management connector (FRMC) in a first region, a failure of a first network connection having a first network type during synchronization operations with a partner region. The FRMC queries connections defined to the transaction processing system to identify a replacement network connection that is connected to the partner region using a second network type that is different than the first network type. The FRMC collects relevant data for an interrupted synchronization operation. The FRMC issues a command to link to a specific program in a FRMC in the partner region. The command includes the relevant data for the interrupted synchronization operation. A second recovery management connector of the first region communicates the command to and a response from the partner region via the replacement network connection in order to continue the interrupted synchronization operation.
