Abstract

A verification strategy is provided to verify proper multi-master replication of logical structures, such as objects, in a data processing system. The strategy is especially well adapted for use within the distributed environment. The strategy verifies that proper reconciliation of name spaces has occurred via multi-master replication. The strategy also verifies that the correct propagation of knowledge of changes to objects has occurred during replication.
