Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You're using SQL Server in combination with MSDTC.
  • You creates a distributed transaction that spans two or more database instances.
  • During two-phase commit, SQL Server prepares the transaction, but its database has to restart.
  • As part of the database restart, SQL Server will try to recover its log, and will have to communicate with MSDTC for outcome by calling Reenlist.
In this scenario, when SQL Server calls Reenlist during the database recovery, the MSDTC proxy throws an error message XACT_E_RECOVERYALREADYDONE (0x8004D104L) that indicates Reenlist is no longer available to be called.
