(1) An optimization that cuts the number of two-phase commit flows to one agent in half by leaving the last agent out of the first phase of the commit process and giving the last agent the commit decision during the second phase. An initiator or last agent can use this optimization with only one of its subordinates, which is called the optimized last agent (or simply the last agent).<br />(2) An optimized commit flow for either presumed-nothing or presumed-abort protocols in which the last agent, or final participant, becomes the commit coordinator. This flow saves at least one message.

Also used to determine which events a specific correlation rule will apply to.<br />(3) A logical expression of criteria that determines which events are forwarded to the application program that registers the event filter with the event sieve agent.<br />(4) The criteria that must be met by an event before a rule action is executed.<br />(5) A filter that specifies the event criteria for an event action plan. Events must meet the criteria specified in the event filter in order to be processed by the event action plan to which the filter is assigned.
