a user in this domain. If not specified or specified with a value of <=0, indicates the default value configured in Cisco
UCS should be used. This default is typically 600 seconds.

Connection Definition Dialog
The Connections Definition dialog contains the following elements:
Name—Enter a name for the Adapter.
Enabled—Activates or disables (deactivates) the connection, shutting down the adapter. A job cannot run on an
adapter if its connection is disabled. If jobs try to run on a disabled connection, the job enters Agent Disabled status.
Jobs already running on an agent that is disabled (or if the connection to the agent is lost) run to completion;
however, their completion status is not returned until the agent is enabled.
