Abstract
A method for carrying out a check point for preventing a dangling transaction occurrence. The method uses a transaction table initialization technique performed during a recovery function. The method is performed by avoiding interruption of transactions occurring at the time the check point is carried out and is performed by reducing the amount of work required at the time of performing a recovery function from a failure detected in the transaction processing system. The occurrence of a dangling transaction is prevented by using a transaction table initialization technique at an analysis step for the transaction terminated between a time interval commencing when a check point start log record of a prior completed check point is logged and ending at a point of time when the check point end log record is logged.
