ApplicationType (MQLONG) for MQBNO

The type of balancing option set in the structure.

The possible values are:
MQBNO_BALTYPE_SIMPLE
Simple balancing; no specific rules are applied in addition to those described in Influencing application re-balancing in uniform clusters.
MQBNO_BALTYPE_REQREP
Request-Reply balancing; after each MQPUT call, a matching MQGET call is expected for a response message. Balancing is delayed until such a message is received, or the request message EXPIRY has been exceeded.

This is always an input field. The initial value of this field is MQBNO_BALTYPE_SIMPLE.

You must provide one value only for the ApplicationType field or MQRC_BNO_ERROR is returned.
Note: An additional value for this field of MQBNO_BALTYPE_RA_MANAGED is reserved for use by the IBM® MQ Resource Adapter for JEE environments. While it is an error for an application to supply this value directly it can, for example, be reported when querying application status.
