TIMERRECONNECT n

This specifies time interval that the Expand-over-NAM, Expand-over-ServerNet, or

Expand-over-FOX line-handler process will wait to send out a probe to obtain the

status of the NAM process, or the time interval that the Expand-over-IP or Expand-

over-ATM line-handler process will wait to probe the remote Expand-over-IP or

Expand-over-ATM line-handler process. The time interval is specified in the format

described in Time Values on page 15-6; the time values section applies only to ALTER

PATH or ALTER LINE commands. For the ADD DEVICE command, the format of the

time is just plain seconds.

Probes will continue to be sent out the number of times specified by the

RETRYPROBE attribute. If the TIMERPROBE/RETRYPROBE cycle expires without a

returned status, the Expand-over-NAM, Expand-over-ServerNet, Expand-over-FOX,

Expand-over-ATM, or Expand-over-IP line-handler process declares the network

unavailable.

See also RETRYPROBE n and TIMERRECONNECT n.

TIMERRECONNECT n

Default: 30 for Expand-over-IP, Expand-over-ATM, and Expand-over-NAM

60 for Expand-over-ServerNet and Expand-over-FOX

Units: seconds

Range: 30 through 32767 for Expand-over-IP, Expand-over-ATM

0 through 32767 for Expand-over-NAM, Expand-over-ServerNet, and

Expand-over-FOX

This specifies the time interval that the Expand-over-NAM, Expand-over-ATM, Expand-

over-IP, Expand-over-ServerNet, or Expand-over-FOX line-handler process will wait for

a connection request to succeed. The range does not include 0. The time interval is

specified in the format described in Time Values on page 15-6; the time values section

applies only to ALTER PATH or ALTER LINE commands. For the ADD DEVICE

command, the format of the time is just plain seconds.

Expand line-handler processes on opposite ends of an X25AM line should use different

values for TIMERRECONNECT.
