SUMMARY

If PROBE.EXE is run with no parameters, it will display its syntax. PROBE.EXE connects to the specified server and displays the status of the specified commit ID (a, b, c, or u); it uses sp_stat_xact to do this, which is the same stored procedure used by the two-phase commit DB-Library (DB-Lib) function stat_xact.

For more information about two-phase commit, please refer to Chapter 6 of the "Microsoft SQL Server Programmer's Reference."
