Time-out

The following types of timeout may occur for a DO TSO, DO KSL, or DO SHELL statement:

• Queue time-out

  Queue timeout occurs when a DO statement is queued to a server beyond the time period defined for that server in Control-O installation parameters. When the timeout occurs, the DO statement is removed from the server queue and rerouted for execution by an Immediate server.

• Execution time-out

  Execution time-out occurs when a DO statement has been executing in a server beyond the time period specified for that DO statement in the TIMEOUT parameter. Following execution time-out, the response of the server depends upon the value of the STOP parameter in the DO statement of the rule. Valid values are:

  • Y (Yes) – The executing request is canceled.
  • N (No) – The request continues to execute.

Note: If the DO statement was issued in Wait-Completion mode, the Wait mode ends when execution time-out occurs (regardless of the value of the STOP parameter). The associated rule then continues executing.
