Guidelines for Setting Capacity and Refill Levels for webMethods Messaging Triggers
Setting Capacity and Refill Level for a webMethods Messaging Trigger
On Integration Server, the webMethods messaging trigger queue contains documents waiting for processing. Integration Server assigns each webMethods messaging trigger a queue. A document remains in the webMethods messaging trigger queue until it is processed by the webMethods messaging trigger.
You can determine the capacity of each webMethods messaging trigger queue. The capacity indicates the maximum number of documents that Integration Server can store for that webMethods messaging trigger.
For a webMethods messaging trigger that receives documents from the webMethods Broker, you can also specify a refill level to indicate when Integration Server should retrieve more documents for the webMethods messaging trigger. The difference between the capacity and the refill level determines up to how many documents the Integration Server retrieves for the webMethods messaging trigger from the webMethods Broker. For example, if you assign the webMethods messaging trigger queue a capacity of 10 and a refill level of 4, the Integration Server initially retrieves 10 documents for the webMethods messaging trigger. When only 4 documents remain to be processed in the webMethods messaging trigger queue, Integration Server retrieves up to 6 more documents. If 6 documents are not available, Integration Server retrieves as many as possible.
For a webMethods messaging trigger that receives documents from the webMethods Broker, the capacity and refill level also determine how frequently Integration Server retrieves documents for the webMethods messaging trigger and the combined size of the retrieved documents, specifically:
*The greater the difference between capacity and refill level, the less frequently Integration Server retrieves documents from the webMethods Broker. However, the combined size of the retrieved documents will be larger.
*The smaller the difference between capacity and refill level, the more frequently Integration Server retrieves documents. However, the combined size of the retrieved documents will be smaller.
Note: A refill level can be set for webMethods messaging triggers that receive documents from the webMethods Broker only. Refill level does not apply to webMethods messaging triggers that receive documents from Universal Messaging.
For a webMethods messaging trigger that receives messages from Universal Messaging, Integration Server receives documents for the trigger one at a time until the trigger queue is at capacity. After the number of documents in the trigger queue equals the configured capacity, Integration Server stops receiving documents. When the number of documents awaiting processing in the trigger queue is less than the configured capacity, the trigger resumes receiving messages from Universal Messaging.
