Hi,
Can anyone show me how to retrieve (and then store in my local driver) for
any XML documents submitted to my Receive Port?
I work through HAT utility and none of them gives me the answer. It seems
that you can only save the tracked "Suspended"  and "Resumable" messages fro
m
HAT. How do I get those messages already successfully processed by
Orchestration (the state is completed)?

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Cheers
Ben Jiang

The simplest way to do this would be to set up a send port subscription to
route a copy of every message from the receive port to a directory on your
local machine. I'm assuming this is during development / debugging, and not
something you want in production?

Add a new send port, and add a filter to the port, specifying the receive
port name for the filter property "BTS.ReceivePortName". This will catch
every message picked up by the receive port specified.

Thanks Hugo for the suggestion.
From time to time, we need to examine the documents sent from our partners.
If necessary we will have to re-submit the same document in our system.
This will happen in our production environment.

I just wonder if MessageBox database has already stored a copy of the
original documents submitted into our receive port. If so, how to retrieve i
t?
It is pity that I can not work out the DB structure in MessagBox database.
Otherwise WMI may be a way to go.

I really need someone there to help me out this.

Cheers
Ben

Ben - have you tried using the Reporting queries in HAT, instead of the
Operations view? Using Reporting you can get access to messages that have
been processed. You'll have to ensure that the correct levels of tracking
are enabled, and be aware that turning on tracking on all messages does have
performance side-effects.

From the documentation:
"Reporting uses historical data that you may have been tracking for a long
time. Use Reporting to see trends such as how many failures a month there
are. You can troubleshoot by tracking the steps of a process or message. For
example, if an order routed incorrectly, you can follow the message through
to see where the request came in, where it went, and why."

I haven't done much with Reporting in HAT, so can't give any assurances I'm
afraid. There have been a couple of other posts on the same topic (which I
can't find now), so keep looking...

I've just done a quick test, and this looks like it works. Open HAT, go to
the Configuration menu > Pipelines option. This will list all the available
services - select the relevant receive pipeline, and check the "Inbound
Message Bodies" option at the bottom of the form. Then put a message through
the system, go back to the Reporting > Find Message screen, and when you've
found the message right-click and choose the Save All Tracked Messages
option.

The tracking database may take some time to update, so if you may need to
wait a minute or two before you can save the messages.

(Obviously saving the body of every message going through a pipeline is
going to add a significant overhead to processing, so may not be appropriate
in a live environment).

You can also use a custom pipeline component to "archive" inbound messages.
See this post for the source code.
