Chapter 9 – BEA TUXEDO Messaging Adapters

On the Command Line

Specify the BEA Tuxedo adapter commands using an execution command string on the command line

or create a command file that contains adapter commands that dictate the desired execution settings. For

information about all the options that you can use with the execution commands for messaging adapters

or creating a command file, see the Execution Commands Reference Guide.

Use the execution commands -IM and -OM with the appropriate adapter alias that is specific for the

BEA Tuxedo adapter as follows:

Adapter Alias As Input As Output

BEA Tuxedo

TUX -IMTUX

card_num

-OMTUX

card_num

BEA Tuxedo (MT)

Multi-Threaded

TUXMT -IMTUXMT

card_num

-OMTUXMT

card_num

When using an adapter alias in conjunction with the execution command, the BEA Tuxedo adapter

commands can be issued on the command line or in a command file. You can use the adapter commands

to specify adapter functions such as specifying a particular message identifier, specifying the username

and password for connection to the Tuxedo messaging system, specifying the data format, or enabling

adapter tracing.

For example, to override the adapter commands defined in input card 1, the command string for the

adapter in an server environment might be:

-IMTUX1 ‘–M C –N INQUIRY –B S,7,BALANCE –AP jones -T’

This example execution command string specifies connection with the Caller Mode adapter

command (-M C) set to client, the Service Name adapter command (-N INQUIRY) specifies the

Tuxedo service name INQUIRY, the Buffer adapter command (-B S,7,BALANCE) specifies a string

of 7 characters of BALANCE, the Application-Wide Password adapter command (-AP jones) sets

the application password to jones. The Trace adapter command (–T) dictates that a trace file be created

to report adapter activity information, recording the events that occur while the adapter is retrieving this

data.
