Sun Identity Manager Overview

Scenario 8: The Web-Services-Workflow-Request-In-Progress-by-Identity Manager Scenario

Scenario Description

This scenario is similar to scenario seven. The only difference is that the workflow is in progress when the node fails, or the node has received the SOAP request when the node fails.

Without Session Persistence

User experience: This scenario is similar to scenario two (workflow in progress). The workflow is marked terminated and the user sees an error as a result of the SOAP request.

Recovery steps: The user has to resubmit the form with similar or modified parameters (based on where the failure occurs in the workflow) using the user interface in the third-party application.

With Session Persistence

User experience: Same as in the Without Session Persistence mode.

Recovery steps: Same as in the Without Session Persistence mode.
