Configuring the Sterling Connect:Enterprise for UNIX Server Batch Status Service

Edit online

To configure the Sterling Connect:Enterprise® UNIX Server Batch Status service, you can optionally specify field settings in Application, but you must specify field settings in the Graphical Process Modeler.

Application Configuration

The following table describes the fields used to configure the Sterling Connect:Enterprise UNIX Server Batch Status service:

Note: The field names in parentheses represent the corresponding field names in the GPM. This information is provided for your reference.
Field Description
Name Unique and meaningful name for the service configuration. Required.
Description Meaningful description for the service configuration, for reference purposes. Required.
Select a Group Group of services or adapters of the same type that can act as peers. A Service Group name is used in BPML in place of the Service Configuration name. Service Groups show up in the GPM as if they were Service Configurations. Select a Service Group to associate with this adapter. Valid values are:
  • None – You do not want to include this configuration in a group at this time (default)
  • Create New Group – You can enter a name for a new group in this field, which is then created along with this configuration.
  • Select Group – If you have already created one or more groups for this service type, they are displayed in the list. Select a group from the list.

For more information about service groups see Managing Services and Adapters.
CEU Server Adapter Instance Name

(CEUServerAdapterInstanceName)

 The instance of the Sterling Connect:Enterprise UNIX Server Adapter that the Batch Status service should use.

The preconfigured service uses the preconfigured adapter named CEU Server Adapter BP.

GPM Configuration

The following table describes the fields used to configure the Sterling Connect:Enterprise UNIX Server Batch Status service in the GPM:

Field Description
Config Name of the service configuration. Required.
CEUBatchFromDate Specifies all batches that were created on or after this date. Optional.
CEUBatchId Specifies the name of one batch in Sterling Connect:Enterprise for UNIX. Optional.
CEUBatchNumber Specifies the batch number. Optional.
CEUBatchOriginator Specifies the originator of the batch. Optional.
CEUBatchToDate Specifies all batches that were created on or before this date. Optional
CEUMailboxId Specifies the mailbox identification where the batch resides. Optional
CEUProcessFlagQuery Lists the process flags that you are sending the query about. This is a comma-delimited string of process flags. Use an exclamation point (!) before a flag to indicate a lack of the flag. Optional.

Example: Y, R, T, P, !V would mean to query batches that are binary (Y), requestable (R), transmitted (T) or transmission in progress (P) but which have not been acknowledged by Application (!V)
CEUProcessFlagUpdate Specifies what the update to the flags should be. Needs the same format as in CEUProcessFlagQuery. Optional.

Example: V, !R, would mean to change the queried batches to acknowledged (!V) and not requestable (!R).
CEUServiceAdapterInstanceName The instance of the Sterling Connect:Enterprise UNIX Server Adapter that the Batch Status service should use. This is typically already defined. Required.
NewCEUBatchId Specifies the identification you want to use to update the CEUBatchId. Optional.
NewCEUMailboxId Specifies the identification you want to use to update the CEUMailboxId. Optional.
Note: The service is used as a query only, unless one or more of these three parameters are defined: CEUProcessFlagUpdate, NewCEUBatchId, NewCEUMailboxId.
