Setting the connection timeout
If you frequently receive connection timeout errors, you must increase the connection timeout value.
The ODBC/MX driver default for connection timeout is 60 seconds. When a system is heavily
loaded, establishing an ODBC connection can take more than 60 seconds, and MXDM connections
might time out. Therefore, the default timeout value for MXDM is set to 180 seconds, and overrides
the default set in the ODBC/MX client data source. You can modify the default MXDM timeout
value.
The following are the connection timeout rules:
•
The default for the connection timeout option is 180 seconds (3 minutes).
•
The range is an integer value from 0 to 2,147,483,647 seconds.
•
Setting a value of 0 indicates no timeout.
•
Setting the connection timeout does not address timeouts that might occur on query execution.
