DM_WATCHDOT Keyword

     DM_WATCHDOG={nnn}

If this keyword is specified to have a non-zero value when the data manager task is started, a watch dog thread is created for a Windows version of SUNDM.

The 'nnn' value in this case specifies the number of idle seconds allowed between logon operations before the Watch Dog Thread takes action. If more than 'nnn' seconds of idle time occurs without a logon to the Main SUNDM Process, the Watch Dog Thread will close the listen socket of the main SUNDM Process. This will cause the Main SUNDM Process to establish a new listening socket.

WARNING:

This keyword was implemented to address a situation where a user was claiming that the SUNDM data manager listening socket was not working properly after idle times. The user's claim was never determined to be a problem caused by SUNDM. This keyword should not be used unless directed by Sunbelt Support.

Example:

     DM_WATCHDOG=60
