How to Configure Per-Instance Pipeline Properties for a Send Port

This topic describes how to use the BizTalk Server Administration console to configure pipeline properties for a send port after the pipeline has been deployed into a BizTalk group. Changes that you make overwrite the default pipeline properties for this send port only, so if you want, you can configure different pipeline properties for each send port in the BizTalk group.

Prerequisites

To perform the procedure in this topic, you must be logged on with an account that is a member of the BizTalk Server Administrators group. For more detailed information on permissions, see Permissions Required for Deploying and Managing a BizTalk Application.

Note

When using per-instance pipeline properties to set the value for the DocumentSpecNames property in the XML disassembler component of a pipeline, the specified document schema and the pipeline must be defined in the same project.

To configure per-instance pipeline properties for a send port

  1. Click Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft BizTalk Server 20xx, and then click BizTalk Server Administration.

  2. In the console tree, expand BizTalk Server Administration, expand the BizTalk group containing the send port for which you want to configure pipeline properties, expand Applications, and then expand the application containing the send port.

  3. Click the Send Ports folder, right-click the send port, and then click Properties.

  4. Click the ellipsis () button to the right of the Send Pipeline box.

  5. Configure the properties you want, and then click OK. Click Help on the properties page for more information.

    Important

    Make sure that you enter correct information for pipelines properties. If you enter an invalid value, for example a string rather than a number, it will generate an error.

  6. If this is a solicit-response send port, click the ellipsis () button to the right of the Receive Pipeline box.

  7. Configure the properties you want, and then click OK twice. Click Help on the properties page for more information.
