Shutdown Framework

When the TIBCO MDM is running, a normal application shutdown requires stopping workflows which are currently executing. Some of the workflows can run for long time, and this gives rise to need for users to be able to stop workflows without loss of data.

When a shutdown is initiated for TIBCO MDM the following happens:

  • No more new work is initiated. All JMS listeners are senders are stopped.
  • Any wokflows which are currently running are stopped and suspended. These workflows will be restarted when the application comes up. If there are any other members in the cluster, such suspended workflows will get transferred to other members.

Servlets (UI or non –UI) will not accept any new requests, and will display an information message.
