Question

How does the scito process events. Does it wait until an event id comes in higher that the last one reported or some other method.
Does SM process events in sequence greater than the last event processed or just any time that event comes in.

Answer

The processing is sequential. The checkpoint file contains the last evsysseq number that was processed and then send in a query where evsysseq > last number.
Checkpoint file always stores the last event processed and only looks for events with a higher sequence number.
