Identity properties [ARM 4.0 Properties]

An identity property is a property that has the same name and value for all instances of an application or transaction.

• The application name and transaction name parameters are mandatory and provide the most basic identification. Many applications and transactions are satisfactorily identified through the use of only the name parameter.
• In addition, there can be up to 20 identity properties of the pattern (name,value) pair, in which both name and value are separate character strings.
• Transactions can also have a URI property that is part of the identity when it is provided.

Identity property names and values are provided when an application or transaction is registered.
