Activation specification properties are properties that hold the inbound event processing configuration information for a message endpoint. You set activation specification properties either through the Adapter Connection wizard or the administrative console.
Activation specification properties are used during endpoint activation to notify the adapter of eligible event listeners. During inbound processing, the adapter uses these event listeners to receive events before forwarding them to the endpoint (a message driven bean).
Descriptive name | Property name | Purpose |
Assured once delivery | AssuredOnceDelivery |
When this property is set to True the adapter provides assured once event delivery. This means that each event will be delivered once and only once. A value of False does not provide assured once event delivery, but provides better performance. |
Delivery type | DeliveryType |
This property determines the order that polled events are published by the adapter to the endpoint. |
Event type filter | EventTypeFilter |
This property is a delimited list of event types that indicates to the adapter which events it should deliver. If set, the adapter will deliver only those events that are on the list. |
Filter future events | FilterFutureEvents |
This property determines whether the timestamp on each event will be compared to the system time. |
Maximum connections | MaximumConnections |
This property specifies the maximum number of connections that the adapter can use for inbound event delivery. |
Minimum connections | Minimum connections |
This property specifies the minimum number of connections that the adapter can use for inbound event delivery. |
Poll period | PollPeriod |
This property specifies the length of time that the adapter waits between polling periods. The poll period is established at a fixed rate. |
Poll quantity | PollQuantity |
This property specifies the number of events that the adapter delivers to the endpoint during each poll period. |
Retry interval | RetryInterval |
When the adapter encounters an error related to the inbound connection, this property specifies the length of time the adapter waits before trying to establish a new connection. |
Retry limit | RetryLimit |
When the adapter encounters an error related to the inbound connection, this property specifies the number of times the adapter tries to restart the connection. A value of 0 indicates an infinite number of retries. |
Stop polling on error | StopPollingOnError |
This property specifies whether the adapter will stop polling for events when it encounters an error during polling. |
Use native object name | UseNativeObjectName |
This property specifies whether the adapter will use the native object name or the business graph name. |
Event component interface name | EventCIName | This property specifies the name of the PeopleSoft Enterprise event component interface that the adapter uses during inbound operations. |
Ping component interface name | PingCompInterface | This property specifies the name of the PeopleSoft component interface the adapter uses to validate a connection to the PeopleSot Enterprise server. |
Event key delimiter | EventKeyDelimiter | This property specifies the delimiter for the object key name-value pair in the event table. |
When this property is set to True the adapter provides assured once event delivery. This means that each event will be delivered once and only once. A value of False does not provide assured once event delivery, but provides better performance.
A value of True, the adapter attempts to store XID information in the event store. If it is set to False, the adapter does not attempt to store the information.
This property is used only if the export component is transactional. If it is not, no transaction can be used, regardless of the value of this property.
Required | Yes |

Default | True |
Property type | Boolean |
Possible values | True or False |
This property determines the order that polled events are published by the adapter to the endpoint.
If this property is set to ORDERED, the adapter publishes events to the endpoint one at a time.
If this property is set to UNORDERED, the adapter publishes all events to the endpoint at once.
If this property is set to ORDEREDBYKEY, the adapter publishes events to the endpoint simultaneously (except when matching event keys occur).
Required | No |
---|---|
Default | ORDERED |
Property type | String |
Possible values | ORDERED, UNORDERED, ORDEREDBYKEY |
This property is a delimited list of event types that indicates to the adapter which events it should deliver. If set, the adapter will deliver only those events that are on the list.
A value of null indicates that no filter will be applied and that all events will be delivered to the endpoint.
Required | No |
---|---|
Default | Null |
Property type | String |
Possible values | Delimited list of event types |
This property determines whether the timestamp on each event will be compared to the system time.
If set to true, the adapter inspects the time of each event and compares it to the system time. If the event time is later than the system time, the event is not be delivered.
If set to false, the adapter will not compare the time of each event to the system time.
Required | Yes |
---|---|
Default | False |
Property type | Boolean |
Possible values | True, False |
This property specifies the maximum number of connections that the adapter can use for inbound event delivery.
Any value less than 1 is treated as 1 by the adapter.
Required | No |
---|---|
Default | 1 |
Property type | Integer |
Restrictions | Only positive values are valid. The adapter considers any positive entry less than 1 to be equal to 1. |
This property specifies the minimum number of connections that the adapter can use for inbound event delivery.
Any value less than 1 is treated as 1 by the adapter.
Required | No |
---|---|
Default | 1 |
Property type | Integer |
Restrictions | Only positive values are valid. The adapter considers any positive entry less than 1 to be equal to 1. |
This property specifies the length of time that the adapter waits between polling periods. The poll period is established at a fixed rate.
If a polling cycle is delayed for any reason, the next cycle will immediately begin.
If set to 0, the adapter does not wait between polling cycles.
Required | Yes |

Default | 2000 |
Property type | Integer |
Unit of measure | Milliseconds |
Restrictions | The value must be greater or equal to 0 |
This property specifies the number of events that the adapter delivers to the endpoint during each poll period.
Required | Yes |

Default | 10 |
Property type | Integer |
Restrictions | The value must be greater than 0 |
When the adapter encounters an error related to the inbound connection, this property specifies the length of time the adapter waits before trying to establish a new connection.

This property specifies whether the adapter will stop polling for events when it encounters an error during polling.
If set to True, the adapter stops polling when it encounters an error.
If set to False, the adapter logs an exception when it encounters an error during polling and continues polling.
