Dynamic assignment patterns are configured along with other human workflow configuration parameters in Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

Each dynamic assignment has two mandatory parameters:

• name:

  The name of the pattern

• classpath:

  The fully qualified class name of the class that implements the pattern.

In addition, each pattern can optionally have any number of properties. These properties are simple name-value pairs that are passed as initialization parameters to the pattern.

The property values specified in these tags are passed as a map (indexed by the value of the name attributes) to the setInitParameters method of the dynamic assignment patterns.

Two of the out-of-the-box patterns have initialization parameters. These are:

• ROUND_ROBIN

  The parameter MAX_MAP_SIZE specifies the maximum number of sets of users or groups for which the pattern can maintain ROUND_ROBIN counts. The dynamic assignment pattern holds a list of users and groups in memory for each group (or list of users and groups) on which it is asked to execute the ROUND_ROBIN pattern.

• MOST_PRODUCTIVE

  The parameter DEAFULT_TIME_PERIOD specifies the length of time (in days) over which to calculate the user's productivity. This value can be overridden when calling the MOST_PRODUCTIVE dynamic assignment pattern.
