Hi All,
We are using WBIMB V5.0 CSD 05 on Windows platform. Brokers are also on windows platform. We need to check the availability of some other system, say SYS1. For this we planned to send a request message to SYS1 from WBIMB at every 5 minutes interval. Now the problem is how to initiate the message flow in WBIMB after every 5 minutes so that we can send a request to SYS1 and get response back. SYS1 hosting a web service. We are using HTTP request node.
I read from the forum that there is a availabilty of timer nodes for WBIMB V6.0 and IBM not supporting these nodes for WBIMB V5.0
You can schedule a simple job, perhaps just amqsput or amqsputc, with your OS scheduler (cron, AT, Scheduled Tasks, etc) that will put a message on a queue.
You can write a custom Input node that will fire off a message flow on a regular basis.
You might want to consider not bothering to check this availability within a business logic system - and use a real monitoring system instead. Or just not bother monitoring the other side's availability at all and send an error when you get a bad return code from the HTTP request. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general.
