Request parameters

For MQSeries each request contains the following parameters. Unlike the TCP/IP protocols, there is no need to include the user id as a parameter as MQSeries already includes this information in each message.

• Job identifier

Every job that you submit must have a non-empty identifier. It is used for progress messages, but not internally for identification of request messages. This means that job identifiers do not necessarily have to be unique.

• Service

The second parameter is also required and contains the name of the Service that you want to run.

• Optional parameters

Every job that you submit can have zero or more additional parameters. In the KCM Core administration program, you define how these parameters are mapped to script parameters. When the mapping contains more parameters than those specified in a job, these parameters are assumed to be undefined.
