Chapter 5 Running and configuring the Integration Engine service 91
Understanding the configuration file and its parameters
ConfigInterval Defines, in minutes, how often the Integration Engine service
waits between checking for data exchanges that have become
active or inactive since the last poll interval. The Integration
Engine service creates new threads for active data exchanges and
removes the associated threads for data exchanges that have
become deactivated. A value of 1440 results in the Integration
Engine service checking for activated and deactivated data
exchanges once a day. The default is five minutes, which is
appropriate for debugging.
This parameter works with the settings on the Schedule tab of the
EIE:DataExchange form. The ConfigInterval parameter
determines how often the Integration Engine service checks the
status of the data exchanges. The settings on the Schedule tab
initiate the data exchanges at the interval or time specified.
ConfigPassCount Number of passes that the Integration Engine service makes
looking for active data exchanges. This parameter is useful for
testing. After the Integration Engine service has completed the
designated number of passes, it does not become active again until
it is stopped and restarted. A value of 0 results in continuous
activity. The default is one pass.
DebugOn Enables the Integration Engine service to record details and
problems with the Integration Engine service in the
eiemain.dbg
file. See Chapter 6, “Logging and debugging” for more
information.
The default setting is Yes.
Logging Enables or disables logging of messages to the local log file and to
the EIE:Events form. See Chapter 6, “Logging and debugging” to
view a list of log file messages. Valid values are:
Yes (enable logging)
No (disable logging)
The default setting is Yes.
MaxDebugSize Indicates the maximum size in bytes that the debug file reaches
before it closes the current file and copies it to a .
bak version. The
previous .
bak version is overwritten. The default value is 102400.
MaxLogSize Indicates the maximum size in bytes that the log file reaches
before it closes the current file and copies it to a .
bak version. The
previous .
bak version is overwritten. The default value is 102400.
