Day 8: OFS -
SLIDE6:
Subroutines must take an incoming parameter and an outgoing parameter
SLIDE8:
Batch Mode used for processing files (example –recovery)
SLIDE10:
The number of open OFS connections impact the number of licences bought (if not
unlimited)
Each connection processes one request at a time. Other requests queue up in the
[Link].
Every request has a corresponding response.
SLIDE11:
To update concat files then use GLOBUS mode. But it has a delay associated with it.
Eg BP processing.
Globus mode is two way – post a transaction and forget about it – OFS Message
queue
Or you need a feedback for that transaction – OFS [Link]
OFS will never update concat files – this has to be done explicitly through routines –
thus using [Link].
In [Link], eg ALLIANCE record, the [Link] = Session. This is for
browser.
SLIDE13;
Initial Routine – for eg when the request is started to stop/start services
Close routine - for eg kickoff a service
In Msg Rtn – get executed before message gets to T24
Out Msg Rtn – get executed after message returns from OFS.
Two types of OFS - process or validate
