Is there a need for a general mechanism for Fragmenting Large Transmissions (messages as well as batches). The UK uses a max. 25Mb size of individual transactions.

  • 20060510 WGM: Motion "The INM committee decides not to support a mechanism to fragment large messages. Any fragmentation for transmission/transport purpose should be dealt with within the Message Infrastructure Layer. The receiving HL7 Application has the option of refusing an interaction because of its size." (Motion by Rene/Miroslav, 13-1-0).
    • Discussion: Miroslav: fragmentation is present in v2 (as a site negotiation option), problematic in v3. Fragmentation is a post-serialization ITS specific issue. Document that MIL may support fragmentation in the ATS document.
