Incomplete command time-out

Last Updated : Jun 22, 2015 |

A command time-out feature exists on the system-parameters maintenance. The command time-out feature improves the operation of daily maintenance by allowing maintenance routines to run that might otherwise not run. It also helps to prevent the loss of translations that were not saved with save translation, and were also not saved because daily maintenance was prevented from running prior to the system reset. The highlights of the feature include:

  • Options for blank, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 hours. The default is 2 hours.

  • The blank option indicates that the feature is not active

  • Only commands that block the running of daily maintenance, such as add, change, duplicate, remove, and set are affected.

  • All logins will time out if any of these commands are active for the prescribed time except for the blank option.

  • The feature applies to all logins, regardless of type, such as init, dadmin, craft, inads, or permissions granted to the specific login ID of an administration or maintenance user

  • The corresponding time-out entry is appended to the list history log.

The Command Time-out field can be viewed by customer administrators. A craft, init, dadmin, or inads login is required to change the option for the field. The figure shows the Maintenance-related System Parameters screen for Communication Manager.
