Thanks that explains why I was missing the correlation. To avoid the transaction manager to kill our indexing process, I guess our only answer today is to reconfigure the transactions manager to use larger timeouts?
That's quite limiting, especially as it requires to change it globally; ideally I'd want to ping the TM regularly to let it know we're still busy (and doing fine) ? I couldn't find a method to do that by looking at the standard javax.transaction API, so I'm wondering if we should take advantage of some proprietary extensions. Other than that, on the standard API I see we could set the TX timeout for this specific transaction; we should probably add a new option to the MassIndexer API to have the user suggest a very-high-but-reasonable timeout?
