  • Most complicated of all, the GATV needed a restartable engine capable of no less than five start-and-stop cycles in space in contrast to the two-start engine that came standard in the original Agena rocket, enabling the docked pair of spacecraft to be maneuvered in any direction, even to a different orbit.

  • To prevent problems, long running operations must be idempotent (i.e., repeatable without side effect) and/or incrementally restartable (i.e., able to continue from the most recent point of failure).

  • To be incrementally restartable, a long running operation should consist of a sequence of smaller atomic operations, and it should record its progress in durable storage, so that each subsequent invocation picks up where its predecessor stopped.
