Configuring Message Queue Polling

Overview of Message Queue Polling

Message Queue Polling Concepts

Message queue polling is a SAS feature that enables you to monitor a message queue and start SAS programs to fulfill requests in the queue. You can configure message queue polling for WebSphere MQ only.

Message queue polling is performed by the message queue polling server. The message queue polling server is a specialized SAS server that monitors a queue and performs SAS processing on the messages in the queue. Message queue polling servers are managed by the Object Spawner. The spawner creates polling server sessions as needed, and balances the workload between the server sessions.

For more information about using message queue polling with WebSphere MQ, see Using Message Queue Polling with WebSphere MQ.
