We are an AIX5.2 shop running both CIS5.3 Rev3 and CIS5.4.1 Rev2 and plan to migrate to CIS5.6 on AIX5.3. In reviewing the online documentation (link in our install CD) about a new feature for “auto resend” for a thread (key value pair OBMSGID), a couple of questions pop up for us.
With “resend OB message” checked in the Timeout Handling configuration (was Reply Generation) the documentation implies that the engine will clean out this new State 16 message in memory and recovery if a reply is received and the await replies flag has been turned off by the engine.
(1) Question:
(2) Question:
With our newer Cloverleaf staff this feature will prove to be productive as the mystery of reply/resend would not have to be fully understood for a novice Cloverleaf person to implement rudimentary reply/resend.
Your comments would be most welcomed before we launch into full blown testing here.
Thanks in advance!
