hello
i am trying to setup a noop activity on my desktop running mq5.3, wf3.5, db2 8.2. in mq can the fmcinternalnoop be used with a pea and a upes on the execution server tab or is it only the upes. can someone explain why?
thanx
Nathan

Funny you should ask this... I just recently had a PMR open on this exact issue.....
While it is possible to use either a PEA or a UPES with the FMCINTERNALNOOP program, the preferred method is to use the UPES. Any use of PEA is now discouraged.

thanks for the reply John. So what would be the appropriate usage of an noop activity? Can I use it to launch a .exe on my desktop? what happens if the program the pea is referring to is not working and workflow reaches that step?

thank you.... What we have been doing all along is running a dummy program (inplace of the NOOP at all decision related points) that resides on our solaris dev box and it would simply return a code back to wf, upon which the path in wf is back on it's merry way. we are in the process of changing our flows to incorporate the noop stuff.. This doc will help us. thanks a lot. - Nathan
