MaxUncommittedMsgs (10-digit signed integer)
Maximum number of uncommitted messages within a unit of work.
This is the maximum number of uncommitted messages that can exist within a unit of work. The number of uncommitted messages is the sum of the following since the start of the current unit of work:
- Messages put by the application with the PMSYP option
- Messages retrieved by the application with the GMSYP option
- Trigger messages and COA report messages generated by the queue manager for messages put with the PMSYP option
- COD report messages generated by the queue manager for messages retrieved with the GMSYP option
The following are not counted as uncommitted messages:
- Messages put or retrieved by the application outside a unit of work
- Trigger messages or COA/COD report messages generated by the queue manager as a result of messages put or retrieved outside a unit of work
- Expiration report messages generated by the queue manager (even if the call causing the expiration report message specified GMSYP)
- Event messages generated by the queue manager (even if the call causing the event message specified PMSYP or GMSYP)
Notes:
- Exception report messages are generated by the Message Channel Agent (MCA), or by the application, and so are treated in the same way as ordinary messages put or retrieved by the application.
- When a message or segment is put with the PMSYP option, the number of uncommitted messages is incremented by one regardless of how many physical messages actually result from the put. (More than one physical message may result if the queue manager needs to subdivide the message or segment.)
- When a distribution list is put with the PMSYP option, the number of uncommitted messages is incremented by one for each physical message that is generated. This can be as small as one, or as great as the number of destinations in the distribution list.
