Answer 1

Since transaction is bounded to the Thread, you should be sure that all your subscribers are withing the same direct flow. In this case they will be invoked one by one.
However I see that you use ignore-failures = "false". Having you ignore all downstream exception and allow for your subscribers to do their work. Although you lose TX rollback, of course.
So, revise your use-case if you really want to have automatic rallback.
There is an async trick to control TX, but it is a bit complex and require some logic with aggregator.
