Prioritization of partners

Partners can be prioritized in the partner list. This priority only applies to requests that have the same request priority, but are sent to partners with different partner priorities. Otherwise, the request priority overrides the partner priority.

The following lists show, for each platform in question, the sequence in which requests are processed if requests with different request and partner priorities are present.

BS2000 and z/OS:

Processing sequence	Request priority	Partner priority
1	high	high
2	high	normal
3	high	low
4	normal	high
5	normal	normal
6	normal	low
7	low	high
8	low	normal
9	low	low

Unix and Windows systems:

Processing sequence	Request priority	Partner priority
1	normal	high
2	normal	normal
3	normal	low
4	low	high
5	low	normal
6	low	low
