MQSeries Adapter Commands for Compatibility
The Number of Messages (–NM) and the Duplicate Message ID (-DID) adapter
command functionality have been retained to provide compatibility support for
Mercator Software version 1.4.2 maps using these commands. These commands
are for use only with data sources.
The following table lists the version-1.4.2-compatible commands and the
command syntax:
Name Syntax
Duplicate Message ID
-DID
Number of Messages
-NM
value
Duplicate Message ID (-DID)
Use the Duplicate Message ID adapter command (-DID) to specify the
concatenation of source messages with duplicate IDs into a single map buffer.
-DID
The number of messages must be specified with the Number of Messages adapter
command (
-NM). A sample command to retrieve 10 multiple concurrent messages
with the same message ID would be:
-QMN qmgr –QN my.queue –DID -NM 10
Equivalent adapter functionality can be achieved with the Quantity (
-QTY) and the
Message ID (
-MID) adapter commands used with integral or burst mode.
Number of Messages (-NM)
Use the Number of Messages adapter command (-NM) to specify the number of
messages to retrieve from the source queue, without regard to message IDs.
-NM
value
Option Description
value
A positive integer representing the number of
concurrent multiple messages with the same message
ID to be retrieved.
