1. Will abort be triggered if a transaction fails in the commit phase in Daos? (I read the code myself and found that this happens when the submission fails. At this time, some nodes may submit successfully) 2. If abort is triggered, what is the meaning? Will strong consistency be lost?
If abort is called either by the application directly (daos_tx_abort()) or by DAOS internally (something went wrong during commit), then all changes associated with the transaction are discarded and consistency is preserved.
None of the uncommitted modifications are visible to external readers.
Cheers,
Johann

Are there two situations when trying abort after submission failure： 1. The peer1 node submitted successfully, but did not receive the abort request due to network reasons (Should it go back even if it receive abort request? ) 2. The peer2 submission failed and received an abort request, so abort was completed Is there any inconsistency at this time?
