CHAPTER 2    Running Adaptive Server IQ

Additional parameters can be added to tune the behavior of the server for each 
protocol. For example, the following command line instructs the server to use 
two network cards, one with a specified port number. This command must be 
entered all on one line, even though it appears on multiple lines here.

For detailed descriptions of network communications parameters that can 
serve as part of the 
–x 
switch, see “Network communications parameters” in 
the Adaptive Server IQ Reference Manual.
Limiting inactive connections
Adaptive Server IQ uses two parameters, 
-tl
 and 
-ti
, to determine when it should 
close user connections.
Setting the default 
network timeout
A liveness packet is sent periodically across a client/server TCP/IP or IPX 
communications protocol to confirm that a connection is intact. If the server 
runs for a liveness timeout period (default 2 minutes) without detecting a 
liveness packet, the communication is severed. The server drops any 
connections associated with that client. There is no warning. All activity that 
falls within any open transaction is rolled back. 
The 
–tl
 switch on the server sets the liveness timeout, in seconds, for all clients 
that do not specify a 
–tl 
switch when they connect. Liveness packets are sent at 
an interval of the (liveness timeout)/4.
You may want to set a higher value for this switch at the server level. Many 
users, especially those who have used earlier versions of Adaptive Server IQ, 
will not expect to be disconnected after only 2 minutes of inactivity.
Try setting the liveness timeout to 300, together with the recommended value 
for 
–ti
 discussed in the next section. Set this switch as follows:
-tl 300
If this value does not work well, try 
-tl 1200
, which sets the liveness timeout to 
20 minutes.
Note  
Users who are running a client and server on the same machine do not 
experience a liveness timeout.
