4.6.3 Connection Modes

Jolt supports notification receipts for clients working in either connection-retained or connection-less modes of operation. Connection-retained clients receive all notifications. Jolt clients working in connection-less mode receive notifications while they have an active network connection to the Jolt Session Handler (JSH). When the network connection is closed, the JSH logs and drops notifications destined for the client. Jolt clients operating in a connection-less mode do not receive unsolicited messages or notifications while they do not have an active network connection. All messages received during this time are logged and discarded by the JSH.

Connection mode notification handling includes acknowledged notifications for Jolt clients in the Oracle Tuxedo environment. If a JSH receives an acknowledged notification for a client and the client does not have an active network connection, the JSH logs an error and returns a failure acknowledgment to the notification.
