A positive integer representing the number of concurrent multiple
messages to be retrieved.
For example, to specify a quantity of ten messages, the syntax would be:

The Quantity adapter command (-QTY) defines the maximum number of messages across all bursts for
a map.
When the Quantity adapter command (-QTY) is used, the message cursor is not returned to the head of
the queue for other source cards in the same map which use the identical queue manager and queue. The
number of bursts in a single map invocation can be controlled through the combination of values set in
the Map Designer AdapterSource > FetchUnit setting and the Quantity adapter command (-QTY).
Reply Queue Name (-RQ)
Use the Reply Queue Name adapter command (-RQ) to specify the name of the reply queue associated
with the message when accessing a Tuxedo /Q.
-RQ
reply_queue_name
Option Description
reply_queue_name
Name of the QNAME on a Tuxedo /Q.
The Reply Queue Name adapter command (-RQ) specifies where reply messages generated as a result
of processing the original message should be enqueued.
Note The Reply Queue Name adapter command (-RQ) is only valid when calling a Tuxedo /Q on
output.
