init_prflag
The init_prflag utility resets sleep times and trace levels for Control-M/Server processes.
This utility performs the following actions:
-
The sleep times for all Control-M/Server processes are reset to their initial (installation) values. See the table below.
-
The trace level for all Control-M/Server processes is reset to zero.
The sleep time setting for Control‑M/Server processes can affect the functionality of Control‑M/Server and the performance of your data center. Sleep time is the length of time that a process lies dormant before "waking up" to check if any request to perform an action was received. When modifying certain Control‑M/Server process sleep time settings, it is important to consider the number of jobs that are processing, the job schedule plan, and the overall load on the computer.
