Hello Guys,
I had a requirement in which I developed an IIB service which parallely invokes two services , we did this as follows :
By using HTTP asynchronous nodes along with aggregate nodes.

But now there is an new requirement that we need to save the initial request coming to the service using Environment variable , but we discovered environment variable is lost after making parallel calls. To fix this I used a shared row variable . Its working fine .
However, I have a query that shared row variable is shared across threads , I worry one thread could end up overwriting the contents of another request that is still processing .
So , can we use some unique identifier from Http Input node itself to distinguish between requests , or is there any other option to store original request .

Thanks .

hi...for Aggregation using MQ I've seen input info passed along as part of the RFH2 usr folder. Anyway, found the below at infocenter which you could consider for your scenario,

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSMKHH_9.0.0/com.ibm.etools.mft.doc/ac20411_.htm

'In some cases you might want to correlate aggregation request messages with the combined response message produced by your fan-in flow, there are two ways of doing this:

Store some correlation information in one of the requests sent out as part of the aggregation.
Send the original request message directly back to the AggregateReply node as one of the aggregation requests. To do this, the CorrelId must be set to the MsgId, and the MQOutput node must have its MessageContext set to 'Pass all'.

Hi Guys,

Two parallel calls I am making one to HttpAsync and other to SOAP Async, and storing the original request in environment variable , for both of them and using aggreagte nodes . However if any of the calls fails environment is lost . So we decided to use shared variables , its working fine , but my concern is if multiple threads are used say in load testing then will the shared variable with one request will be overridden with the other while the 1st req is still processing .

It will.

Even if your application code isn't using MQ, you can still using the Aggregation nodes (which use MQ under the covers) and are the best solution to your problem.

It will...unless you use BEGIN ATOMIC...END blocks around the statements that read and write the shared row variable.
