COMMTimeout seconds, IDLETimeout minutes

If the option is set to YES, or if the TCPPORT and TCPADMINPORT are the same value (the default), then the administrative sessions can use the

TCPPORT.

vNO

If the option is set to NO, and if the TCPADMINPORT value is different than the TCPPORT value, then administrative sessions cannot use

TCPPORT.

COMMTimeout seconds

Specifies the maximum number of seconds that the server waits for an expected client message during an operation that causes a database update. The default value is 60. The minimum value is 1. If the length of time exceeds this time-out, the server ends the session with the client. You may want to increase the time-out value to prevent clients from timing out. Clients may time out if there is a heavy network load in your environment or when they are backing up large files.

IDLETimeout minutes

Specifies the maximum number of minutes that a client session can be idle before the server cancels the session. The default value is 15 minutes. The minimum value is 1 minute. You may want to increase the time-out value to prevent clients from timing out if there is a heavy network load in your environment. Note, however, that a large number of idle sessions could prevent other users from connecting to the server.

MAXSessions number_of_sessions

Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous client sessions that can connect with the server. The default value is 25 client sessions. The minimum value is 2 client sessions. The maximum value is limited only by available virtual memory size or communication resources.

MSGSTACKTRACE onoff

Specifies that a list of functions will be shown on the server console, and will also be directed to the activity log after specific messages have been issued. The output will help the Tivoli Storage Manager service team to diagnose specific problems quicker. It is recommended that this option be set to ON.

RESOURCETimeout minutes

Specifies the maximum number of minutes that a storage agent waits for a resource on the server. The default value is 60 minutes. The minimum value is 1 minute.

For database resources and sessions on the storage agent, the Tivoli Storage Manager resource monitor picks the shortest time-out value to start a recovery process.

In contrast, in the case of library sharing, the resource monitor picks the longest time for both the library manager and library client to recover. For more efficient management of shared library resources, consider setting resource time-outs at the same limit for all participants in a shared configuration. In any case of error recovery, Tivoli Storage Manager always defers to the longest timeout limit.

You should also specify this option in the server options file. The server uses this option to monitor some of the storage agent sessions and resources and will cancel sessions based on the value you specify.
