Configuring TCP/IP HL7 V2 Adapter Outbound Connectivity Map Properties

Max Data Size

Specifies the maximum size of data that the programs can hold internally. The valid range is from 1 to 2GB (which is the max value of java integer). 

An integer indication the maximum data size in bytes, ranging from 1 to 2147483647 (2GB).

The configured default is 2147483647.

Scope Of State

It is used to define the scope of State object, which is an OTD node. The valid options for this parameter are: 

• Resource Adapter Level: The State has the same life cycle as the resource adapter.

• Connection Level: The State has the same life cycle as the connection.

• OTD Level: The State has the same life cycle as the OTD object.

  This scope represents the life cycle of the State.

Select Resource Adapter Level, Connection Level, or OTD Level.

The configured default is Resource Adapter Level.

Connection Type

Specifies how the adapter establishes the TCP/IP connection: 

• Client: The adapter connects to an external server (host/port) to establish the connection. The adapter is in active mode.

• Server: The adapter waits/listens on a particular port for an incoming connection request from an external client. Once the request is received, the adapter accepts the request and establishes the connection. The adapter is in passive mode.

Select Client or Server.

Unless you specifically require Server mode, leave this value as the default, Client.

ServerSoTimeout

Sets or gets the value of the SoTimeout for the ServerSocket, in milliseconds. Used for ServerSocket.accept().

When this option is set to a non-zero timeout, calling accept() for ServerSocket will block for only this period of time. If the timeout expires, a java.net.SocketTimeoutException (or java.net.InterruptedIOException) is thrown, though the ServerSocket remains valid.

Enable this option prior to entering the blocking operation. This parameter is only used when the Connection Type is set as Server.

The SoTimeout value in milliseconds. The timeout must be greater than 0 (zero). A timeout of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout.

The configured default is 60000 (60 seconds).

Keep Alive

Specifies whether the client’s SO_KEEPALIVE option is enabled or disabled. When the option is set for a TCP socket and no data has been exchanged across the socket in either direction for 2 hours, TCP automatically sends a KEEPALIVE probe to the peer (the actual value is implementation dependent). This probe is a TCP segment to which the peer must respond. One of three responses is expected:

1. The peer responds with the expected ACK. The application is not notified (since everything is OK). TCP will send another probe following another 2 hours of inactivity.

2. The peer responds with an RST, which tells the local TCP that the peer host has crashed and rebooted. The socket is closed.

3. There is no response from the peer. The socket is closed. The purpose of this option is to detect if the peer host has crashed. This is used for the accepted client Socket.

Select True or False.

True indicates that the SO_KEEPALIVE option is enabled.

Receive Buffer Size

Sets or gets the value of the SO_RCVBUF option for the current socket, that is the buffer size used by the operating system for input on this socket. It provides an estimate of the size of the underlying buffers used by the platform for incoming network I/O.

When used in set, this is a suggestion for the kernel from the application regarding the size of buffers to use for the data to be received over the socket. When used in get, this must return the actual size of the buffer used by the platform when receiving data on this socket.

A number indicating the receive buffer size. 

The configured default is 8192.

Send Buffer Size

Sets or gets the value of the SO_SNDBUF option for the current socket, that is the buffer size used by the operating system for output on this socket. It provides an estimate of the size of the underlying buffers used by the platform for outgoing network I/O.

When used in set, this is a suggestion for the kernel from the application regarding the size of buffers to use for the data to be sent over the socket. When used in get, this must return the actual size of the buffer used by the platform when sending out data on this socket.

A number indicating the send buffer size. 

The configured default is 8192.

SoLinger

Specifies whether the adapter performs a linger-on-close timeout. This option disables/enables immediate return from a close() of a TCP Socket. This parameter is used in conjunction with SoLinger Timeout.

• True with SoLinger Timeout set to a non-zero integer timeout: This means that a close() will block, pending the transmission and acknowledgement of all data written to the peer, at which point the socket is closed gracefully. Upon reaching the linger timeout, the socket is closed forcefully with a TCP RST.

• True with SoLinger Timeout set to a timeout of zero: Indicates that a forceful close is done immediately. See the SoLinger Timeout propertry.

Select True or False.

True enables the SO_Linger option.

SoLinger Timeout

Specifies the server’s SoLinger time-out in seconds. SoLinger Timeout is used in conjunction with SoLinger (see the SoLinger property) to configure the “linger-on-close” timeout.

When SoLinger is set to true (enabled), the SoLinger Timeout value indicates the following:

• A non-zero integer means that calling close() will block, pending the transmission and acknowledgement of all data written to the peer, at which point the socket is closed gracefully. Upon reaching the linger timeout, the socket is closed forcefully with a TCP RST. If the specified timeout value exceeds 65,535 it will be reduced to 65,535.

• A zero integer indicates that a forceful close is done immediately.

An integer between -1 and 65535.

A value of -1 seconds indicates that the SoLinger option is disabled (set as false).

A value of 0 (zero) indicates that SoLinger immediately performs a forceful close.

An value of 1 to 65535 indicates the number of seconds for the time-out.

The configured default is -1 seconds.

SoTimeout

Sets or gets the value of the SoTimeout in milliseconds. When this option is set to a non-zero timeout, calling read() on the InputStream associated with this socket will block for only this configured length of time.

If the timeout expires, a java.io.InterruptedIOException (or java.net.SocketTimeoutException) is thrown, but the Socket remains valid. Enable this option prior to entering the blocking operation.

The SoTimeout value in milliseconds. The timeout must be greater than zero (0). A timeout of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout. 

The configured default is 10000 (10 seconds).

TcpNoDelay

Specifies whether the server’s TcpNoDelay option (that is, Nagle’s algorithm) is enabled or disabled.

• True: Indicates that the server allows data packets that are less than the maximum transfer unit (MTU) size to be sent out immediately over the network. A setting of True may improve performance for higher-speed networks.

• False: Indicates that the server does not allow data packets that are less than the MTU size be sent out immediately over the network.

  This is used for the accepted client socket.

Select True or False.

The configured default is False.

Socket Factory Implementa-tion Class Name

• False indicates that the adapter attempts to match an existing connection (managed by the container).

Select True or False.

The configured default is False.

Auto Reconnect Upon Matching Failure

Specifies whether to attempt to re-connect automatically when the adapter gets a matching connection from a container, even though this connection is not valid due to various reasons: for example, the external side of the connection is closed/reset due to the external application’s logic. 

• True indicates that the adapter discards the invalid matching connection and automatically attempts to reconnect using a new connection.

• False indicates that the adapter does not automatically attempt to reconnect using a new connection: instead, the adapter defers the reconnect control to the user Business Rules. The user must detect this type of failure and act appropriately.

Select True or False.

The configured default is True.

• A: Application acknowledgment. The acknowledgement is sent after the message is successfully and functionally processed by one receiving system.

• C: Commit (accept) acknowledgment. The acknowledgement is sent when the message is successfully received.

Select A or C.

The configured default is A.

eGate Sends App Acks

Used by both the inbound and outbound Collaboration. 

• Inbound: Specifies whether the HL7 application acknowledgment sent to the external system is generated by the adapter or forwarded from the app server.

• True indicates that the adapter receives the external receiving HL7 application acknowledgment from the app server and sends it to the external system.

The date of installation for the sending application software. 

This property applies to HL7 version 2.5 or HL7 version 2.5.1.

Time To Wait For A Response

Specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) that the adapter waits for a response from the external system before taking recourse action (see Action on No Response in the Table 87). Any data from the external system is considered a response.

This property corresponds to the initial read/receive operation timeout. Once a response is received, the subsequent read/receive operation uses the SoTimeout specified timeout (see So Timeout in the Table 78).

An integer indicating the length of time in milliseconds that the adapter waits for a response from the external system. A value of 0 (zero) is interpreted as an infinite timeout.

The configured default is 30000 (30 seconds).

Max Empty Read Retry

Specifies the maximum number of times the adapter attempts to read data from the external system after the read/receive operation returns nothing. This applies to the read or receive operation after a response starts to arrive. 

Empty Read means that a timeout occurs on the read/receive operation, which takes the SoTimeout parameter in the TCPIP Server Base Settings section as the applied timeout setting (see So Timeout in the Table 78).

The corresponding recourse action is specified by the Action on Max Failed Read Retry in the Table 87 .

An integer indicating the maximum number or retries. 

The configured default is 5.

Max No Response

Specifies the maximum number of response timeouts the adapter allows, while waiting for data from the external system, before taking recourse action.

True indicates that journaling is enabled.

The default value is False.

Action on No Response

Specifies the action taken by the adapter when no ACK is received from the external system in the allotted time. The amount of time is determined by the Time To Wait For A Response parameter (see Time To Wait For A Response in the Table 86). The options are:

• Exit: The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

• Resend: The adapter attempts to resend the message to the external system. The Resend option is only allowed when sequence numbering is in effect.

• Reset: The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

  This parameter is used for outbound Collaboration code.

Select Exit, Resend, or Reset.

The configured default is Reset.

Action on Max No Response

Specifies the action the adapter takes when it attempts to send a message to the external system the maximum allowed number of times, and does not receive any response (HL7 Application Acknowledgement) from the external system. The maximum number times the adapter sends a message without receiving a response is determined by the Max No Response parameter (see Max No Response in the Table 86). The options are:
