polls every thirty seconds.

For more information on polling, see “Tuning incoming message polling” on page 230 .

–roThis option is for use at consolidated sites. When remote databases are configured to send output log information to the consolidated database, this option writes the information to a file. The option is provided to help administrators troubleshoot errors at remote sites.

For more information, see “Troubleshooting errors at remote sites” on page 226.

–rpWhen running in continuous mode, the Message Agent polls at certain intervals for messages. After polling a set number of times (by default, one), if a message is missing, the Message Agent assumes it has got lost and requests that it be resent. On slow message systems, this can result in many unnecessary resend requests. You can set the number of polls before a resend request is issued using this option, to cut down on the number of resend requests.

For more information on configuring this option, see “Tuning incoming message polling” on page 230 .

–rtThis option is for use at consolidated sites. It is identical to the -rooption except that the file is truncated on startup.

–ruControl the resend urgency. This is the time between detection of a resend request and when the Message Agent starts fulfilling the request. Use this option to help the Message Agent collect resend requests from multiple users before rescanning the log. The time unit can be any of {s = seconds; m = minutes; h = hours; d = days}

–sSend messages. If none of -r, -I, or -sis specified, the Message Agent executes all three phases. Otherwise, only the indicated phases are executed.

–sd time Control the send delay which is the time to wait between polls for more transaction log data to send.

–tAll trigger actions are replicated. If you do use this option, you must ensure that the trigger actions are not carried out twice at remote databases, once by the trigger being fired at the remote site, and once by the explicit application of the replicated actions from the consolidated database.

To ensure that trigger actions are not carried out twice, you can wrap an IF CURRENT REMOTE USER IS NULL . . . END IF statement around the body of the triggers. This option is available for Adaptive Server Anywhere
