Global: ^INTHPC

This is the unique number identifying the background process.

This is the name of the background process.

1)= S ^INTHPC("B",$E(X,1,60),DA)=""

2)= K ^INTHPC("B",$E(X,1,60),DA)

This field indicates if this background process is active.  If this field is set to INACTIVE the background process will not be started when using the Start Backgound Process menu options.

1)= S ^INTHPC("ACT",$E(X,1,30),DA)=""

2)= K ^INTHPC("ACT",$E(X,1,30),DA)

1)= K:'X ^INRHB("RUN",DA)

2)= Q

This cross reference will shut down the background process if the field is set to INACTIVE.

This is the name of the Device which this program should open and use for all I/O operations.  If it is left blank, this program is assumed to perform no I/O.

This indicates the value of $J for this background process the last time it was started.

This indicates the time this background process was last started.

Site Parameters will be used.

ROUTINE field is equal to  INVTSQT.

1)= S ^INTHPC("DEST",$E(X,1,30),DA)=""

2)= K ^INTHPC("DEST",$E(X,1,30),DA)

If this process opens an TCP/IP port, this field indicates whether it should be opened as a client (the default) or a server.

throughout the life of the process.  Transient connection is opened only during the time of transfer.  For the transmitter, the connection is initiated when a transaction appears in the queue.  The receiver will run in

server mode and listen for connection.  Closing of the connection is up to the client.

The name of a routine or TAG^ROUTINE that is to be run.

This contains the number of times the GIS will attempt to open a socket.

This is the hang time for the transmitter if the message queue is empty. It can be set relatively high for background processes that have low message traffic and low priority messages.

activity log will reflect "maximum number of retries exceeded" and the transmitter will send the next message in the queue.

This is the hang time between attempts to send (field 1.11)

This field indicates if the receiver process should require a remote systems to send a Start Of Message (SOM) at the beginning of every HL7 message.

any responses from that destination system.  This value can be set relatively low to provide interface manageability or high to provide potentially faster throughput.  Consideration should be given to the TCP/IP buffer

size in use on the source and destination systems when setting this value.  High values can result in blocking of the sending application if source and target buffers become full.

Number of times to try to open socekt following consecutive remote end disconnects. This parameter may be needed if connecting through a firewall--which will likely give "false" connect messages.

This is the start-of-message character(s) used for message framing. It will be different depending on the lower level protocol used for a specific interface protocol (e.g. HL7 or X12)

This is the end-of-message character(s) used for framing messages. It will be different depending on the lower level protocol used for a specific interface protocol (e.g. HL7 or X12).

This is the hang time between attempts to open a socket following remote end disconnects.

This is the hang time between open retries.

This is the length of time the interface will wait for a read.

This is the amount of time the transmitter will attempt to send.

This is the number of times the receiver will attempt to read from a socket before giving up.

This is the hang time between attempts to read from a socket.

This field contains the ASCII end-of-line terminator. It will be in the format NN, or NN1,NN2,NN3. The GIS will convert this into $C(NN1)_$C(NN2) etc. and use it as the terminator for messages.

into $C(NN1)_$C(NN2)_$C(NN3) etc.

$C(NN1)_$C(NN2)_$C(NN3) etc

This is the multiple for the background process control error.

Determination of the port(s) to use must be coordinated with the remote system manager.  This field will only be used if the ROUTINE field is equal to  INHVTSR.

This multiple will contain IP address(es) if the process is to be opened as a client

down manually.

Maximum number of this type of server background process that can be started/active at any point in time.  If this field is null, the default will be 9999.  The actual maximum is dependent upon system resource limitations.

will be initialized to 1.

UNEDITABLE

A frame for the key supplied to a workstation during logon.  Each workstation that wishes to connect to a server must have this frame defined and pass it with the security key/ticket provided by the logon process.

# of seconds to wait for remote system to communicate before connection is closed.  Used with interactive sessions (e.g. PWS).

This field is executable MUMPS code that is used to determine the INTERFACE DESTINATION for an inbound message received by this background process.

This field indicates the level of debugging for this Background Process.  If this field is null or 0, debugging is turned off.  The amount of debugging info logged grows as the value of this field is increased.

^UTILITY("INDEBUG",BackgroundProcessIEN,Server#,$J).  Output to the LOG LOCATION depends on the value of the field DEBUG LEVEL.

This is a yes/no flag to indicate whether this background job should encrypt/decrypt messages.

This is an 8-character key which both the sender and the receiver of interface messages must use to encrypt and decrypt each other's messages.

This is the Receiver  Selective Routing M Code.  Screening logic placed here will be executed at the Receiver  process for inbound messages.

This is the Transmitter  Selective Routing M Code.  Screening logic placed here will be executed at the Transmitter  process for outbound messages.
