A recovery manager detects that a distributed transaction is unresolved for a first participant of said distributed transaction. The recovery manager identifies that the distributed transaction is unresolved for a second participant of said distributed transaction. The recovery manager generates a list of participants for which the distributed transaction is unresolved, the list including an entry for the first participant and an additional entry for the second participant. The recovery manager determines a result of the distributed transaction based on information received from a remote coordinator of said distributed transaction. The recovery manager notifies each participant identified in the list of the result.
