Intermediate Message Event

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

Pls help me to understand the behavior of Intermediate Message Event.

Let us assume there are 100 'In Process' processes with the IM event used in these processes. 50 processes are waiting in the IM Event and the rest are yet to reach the IM event wait state. On the output mapping of IM event the underlying process context is modified

A WS triggers to match the correlation in the IM event. Now the questions :

1) Will all the 100 processes be matched with the incoming payload ?  (My answer is yes)

2) Do all the 100 processes establish DB connection for this match ? (My answer : Not sure, I guess only the processes where incoming data is matched will establish DB connection to update the process context.)

Pls correct if my understanding is wrong.

i think only process which has reached the IM event step will be used to match

the answer to the first question should be no.

All the 50 which are sitting in IM event will be triggerred if the correlation condtn matches, rest of them which are yet to reach IM , nothing will happen(no DB match or anything).
