Manage Business Flow Manager hold queue messages
You can use the failed event manager to manage navigation messages that are stored in the Business Flow Manager hold queue. A navigation message might be stored in the hold queue if an infrastructure, such as a database, is unavailable or if the message is damaged.
In a long-running process, the Business Flow Manager can send itself request messages that trigger follow-on navigation. These messages trigger either a process-related action (for example, starting a fault handler) or an activity-related action (for example, continuing process navigation at the activity). A navigation message always contains its associated process instance ID (piid). If the message triggers an activity-related action, it also contains the activity template ID (arid) and the activity instance ID (arid).
You can use the failed event manager to manage Business Flow Manager hold queue messages, or you can use a custom program.
You cannot delete Business Flow Manager hold queue messages in the failed event manager. If the related process instance does not exist, replay the hold queue message to delete the message.
