Regarding persistDuration, the message service spec (line 1758-59) states
"If a message cannot be sent successfully before persistDuration has
passed, then the Sending MSH should report a delivery failure." Lines
1756-1757 also place some responsibility on the sending MSH.
The above statements mean that the persistDuration also applies to the
sending MSH and must be in the header. Or it could mean that it has to be
in the CPA (or whatever you want to use instead of a CPA), where it in fact
is, so that both parties agree on the value.

Subject: RE: T2 Reliable Messaging w/o CPA or VIA...
David
Let's take of these in turn ...
mshTimeAccuracy
>>>This is the accuracy to which a recipient of a message claims to keep
their internal system clocks. This should probably be part of a CPP and
not vary from message to message therefore it does not need to be in the
MessageHeader
reliableMessagingMethod
>>>This needs to be in the Via since it can vary on each hop of a
multi-hop message. I suppose though that, if you are not doing multi-hop
then it forces use of the Via element. I think we could either:
1. Put reliableMessagingMethod in the main MessageHeader with the copy in
the Via element over-riding it, or
2. Change the definition of the Via element to suggest that it to be used
when there is no intermediary
Thoughts?
ackRequested
>>>This is in Via for the same reason as for reliableMessagingMethod - it
can vary from hop-to-hop
retries& retryInterval
>>>These are both parameters that apply to the sender of a message and
over which the receiver of message can have no effective control. There is
therefore no need for them to be in the header. They should however be in
the CPP for the sender
persistDuration
>>>PersistDuration only applies to the recipient of a message as it
specifies the minimum time the recipient will keep a message. The sender
cannot (should not?) control this, therefore there is no need for it to go
in the header.
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
