1 Introduction
The MSDTC Connection Manager: OleTx Transaction Internet Protocol (TIP) is used between an application and a transaction manager to supply information that can be used to request that the transaction manager propagate a transaction to a remote TIP-compliant transaction manager. This protocol enables the propagation of transactions between an OleTx Transaction Manager and a TIP Transaction Manager by using TIP. This protocol operates together with the MSDTC Connection Manager: OleTx Transaction Protocol [MS-DTCO] to enable its interoperation with the open-standard Transaction Internet Protocol (TIP), as specified in [RFC2371].
Sections 1.5, 1.8, 1.9, 2, and 3 of this specification are normative. All other sections and examples in this specification are informative.
