1.5 Prerequisites/Preconditions

The Workflow Instance Management Protocol requires that:

  1. The client role can communicate with the server role so that messages can be exchanged between client and server.

  2. The server role can create and host durable program instances and associate a unique identifier to each durable program instance.

  3. The client role can determine the unique identifier associated by the server role to the durable program instance on which management operation(s) need to be performed. This unique identifier is used by the client to identify the target instance of the management operation on the server.
