It's worth noting that the section on activating exchanges via workflow (i.e. submitting a record into the Application Pending form via a filter or active link) is incorrect.
The reason I bring up creating an entry in the Application Pending using workflow rather than using aiexfer is that it is much more efficient (in my opinion) to simply submit a record to Application Pending than use a run process command to invoke aiexfer (since all that aiexfer does is submit a record into Application Pending anyway). Here's an overview of the correct values to submit into the Application Pending form to activate an event-driven exchange: Category: EIE (the manual says AIE, but that's incorrect) Command: the name of the data exchange you wish to trigger Form: the AIE instance name that your exchange is running under. This is usually something like "[Server Name] Instance 1" Source ID: New Tag: either "On Scheduled Interval" (the manual incorrectly says this should be "On Schedule Interval", note the "d" at the end of "Scheduled") to let the async thread process the request or "Immediate Request" Other Short: your exchange options: -r <Request ID> or -k <Key Value> or -b (bulk exchange). Contrary to what the manual says, the -s parameter is NOT required when submitting to Application Pending (you'll actually get a syntax error if you include the -s <Data Exchange Name> in the Other Short field).

The administration guide has a chapter on Activating event driven data exchanges using eiexfer utility on page 73. If I understood the question that is :) Have a read through it, it might be what you are after. --- En date de : Mer 3.2.10, Atul Vohra <[email protected]> a écrit : De: Atul Vohra <[email protected]> Objet: AIE job À: [email protected] Date: Mercredi 3 Février 2010, 2h11 Hi, We are on v7.1 and am wondering if an AIE job can be invoked from a command line or a filter's run process.
