Abstract

A request is received by a first computer. The first computer delegates the first request to a second computer. The second computer attempts to process the first request and identifies an imminent fault as a result of the attempt. The second computer sends a message to the first computer indicating an imminent fault as a result of the attempted processing of the first request. The first computer sends a message to a third computer indicating that a second request matching the first request should not be processed.
