During the initial (prepare) phase of the transaction, the transaction manager passes this type to the resource manager by calling the Prepare method to obtain a resource's vote on the transaction. Depending on whether it votes to commit or roll back, your implementation of the resource manager should call the Prepared or ForceRollback methods of this type.
The resource manager can also call the Done method at anytime before it has called the Prepared method. By doing so, the enlistment is casting a read only vote, meaning that it votes commit on the transaction but does not need to receive the final outcome.
Durable resource managers can retrieve the information that is be needed by the transaction manager for re-enlistment from the RecoveryInformation property. For more information on recovery, see Performing Recovery.
