In this scenario, a DomainParticipant joins the domain, creates a DataWriter and writes some data, then the DataWriter shuts down (gracefully or due to a fault). The DataWriter restarts and a DataReader joins the domain. Depending on whether the DataWriter is configured with durable history, the late-joining DataReader may or may not receive the data published already by the DataWriter before it restarted. This is illustrated in Figure 1. For more information, see Durable Writer History
