Description
Select one of the following options to specify the Event
Forwarding Mode:

Send Immediately: Select this option to forward the
events immediately to the receiver.

Scheduled: Select this option to schedule event
forwarding. You can specify Time Of Day and Duration
(in minutes) for each day of the week. The valid format
for Time Of Day is hh:[mm] [am|pm]. The duration must
be between 1 and 1440 minutes.
If you do not specify time or duration for any of the days
in the week, the schedule is considered to be 24 hours a
day, seven days a week. It is equivalent to the Forward
Events Immediately option.

Queue Only (don't forward): Select this option to stop
forwarding the events to the receiver system. However,
the integrator stores the events it receives in its queue
unless the queue has a size limit and has reached its
maximum capacity.
This mode is useful if the receiver is down for
maintenance or any network problems persist in
communicating with the receiver system that might not
be fixed immediately. In such situations, rather than
continually trying to forward events, you can select this
option to temporarily stop forwarding messages. After
the problems are resolved, you can re-enable event
forwarding by selecting the Forward Events Immediately
or Scheduled Events Forwarding options.
