•
the transaction reaches the limits set by the MAXTIME and MAXUPDATES
parameters.
Each transaction spans many server requests and updated records are kept
locked between server requests. If the batch process sends work to many
server processes, the servers processes must access different database
records or a deadlock may occur. The commit timer will not cause the current
transaction to be committed if the process is deadlocked.
ATMFTXTIMEOUT { value | NEVER | OFF }
specifies how long automatic transactions may live, regardless of the TMF
AutoAbort setting. This feature requires TMF version 3.6 or later.
°
value is n [ SEC[ONDS] | MIN[UTES] ]
value can be between 5 and 510 minutes and overrides the TMF
AutoAbort timer.
°
NEVER specifies that the TMF AutoAbort timer is not in effect.
°
OFF specifies that the TMF AutoAbort is in effect.
If TXTIMEOUT is configured on a system that is not running TMF 3.6 or later, a
warning message is issued, the configuration is updated and the transaction
timeout takes effect when TMF 3.6 is installed.
DYNAMICTRACE { ON | OFF }
enables or disables dynamic tracing of prepared programs. If enabled,
processes periodically check a signaling file to determine if tracing should be
turned on or off.
The default is ON.
EMSCOLLECTOR { collector-process | NONE }
alternate collector process for runtime EMS event messages generated by the
NonStop AutoTMF software runtime library. EMS events are internal and
generally related to configuration problems.
collector-process specifies an EMS collector, having a device type 1 and
subtype 0; otherwise, the command is ignored.
NONE means EMS logging will not occur.
SECURETRACE ON | OFF
controls tracing of processes by users other than the owner of the process.
The default is ON.
Note. The AutoTMF AutoCommit timer always applies, regardless of the configured
transaction timeout. If the desired transaction time out value exceeds the default
AutoCommit timer value, the user should adjust the AutoCommit timer accordingly.
See AutoCommit attribute description above on page 6-7
for details.
