For message processing on the Advanced Adapter Engine, you can define rules according to which messages with different priorities (low, normal, or high) are processed. Use the attributes from the message header to define such rules.
You have accessed the tool for message prioritization in one of the following ways:
Open a browser and go to http://[host]:[port]/pimon to access the Process Integration tools. Then choose
.Open a browser and go to http://[host]:[port]/nwa to access SAP NetWeaver Administrator. Then choose .
To be able to define rules for a prioritized message processing, proceed as follows:
Choose Message Prioritizing .
The rules are listed once you have defined these prioritization rules. You can delete or edit any other rules available.
If you want to change a rule, select the rule and make the required changes using enhanced input help.
Provided you have not saved any changes to the existing rules, you can discard the changes at any time by reloading the rules.
If you would like to delete a rule, select the rule and choose Delete .
If you would like to define a new prioritization rule, choose Create .
Give the rule a name and select the required priority.
Enter the required header attributes.
You can enter an asterisk (*) here for this. There is enhanced input help available for each attribute.
Save your new/changed rules.
You cannot define any conflicting prioritization rules. When saving such rules you receive an error message.
Rule R1 contains the value pair (A1,B*), and rule R2 contains the value pair (A*,B1). A message with the value pair (A1,B1) would access both rules and cause a conflict. Therefore rule R2 would be rejected during the saving process and an error would be produced.
A rule R3 with the value pair (A*,B*) would conflict with neither R1 nor R2.
Once you have defined the prioritization rules, the Adapter Engine searches for a suitable rule for this message using the header attribute of an incoming message.
If a rule is found, the message is processed according to the priority defined within it.
If multiple rules are found, the system accesses the more specific rule.
If no suitable rule is found, the message is processed with normal priority.
