The following table lists the General Watchdog Process parameters.
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
CTM_PRM_KPA_ACTIVE |
Whether the Heartbeat monitor operates in active or passive mode. Valid Values: Y (for active) or N (for passive) Default: Y Refresh Type: Recycle |
CTM_PRM_KPA_BETWEEN_MSGS |
Time in seconds between heartbeat checks. Valid Values: 1–2^31 (integer) Default: 300 Refresh Type: Recycle |
CTM_PRM_KPA_ROUNDTRIP_TIMEOUT |
Time in seconds to wait for a confirmation from Control‑M/EM. If confirmation does not arrive, a timeout is generated and the connection is severed. Valid Values: any integer Default: 300 Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_ALIVE_MSG |
Indicates message to be sent in response to successful heartbeat checks. Valid values: 1024 characters Default: "" Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_CTO_HOSTNAME |
Host name or IP address of the computer running CONTROL-O/Server. If this parameter is specified, the Watchdog process sends all error messages to the CONTROL-O/Server Central Message window. Valid values:Up to 255 characters. Refresh Type:Recycle |
WD_CTO_TIMEOUT |
Maximum time (in second) to send messages to CONTROL-O/Server before terminating the communication. Valid values: 1-10 Default: 10 seconds How / where to set: Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_ERROR_HANDLER_SCRIPT_FILE |
Full path name of a user defined script called by the Watchdog process as an error handler. The error messages are included as arguments to the script. Valid values: 1024 characters Default: "" (In the shipped config.dat, the default is overridden by ./scripts/UE_handler.) Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_ERROR_HANDLES_TIMEOUT |
Maximum time for the Watchdog facility to wait for the user-defined script to run. Valid values: 5–2^31 Default: 5 (In the shipped config.dat, this is overridden by the value 10.) Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL |
The Watchdog process checks Control‑M/Server processes by sending a message. If this parameter is set to 5, the Watchdog process sends a message to each of the primary Control‑M/Server processes every 5th interval and awaits a response. Valid values: 1–2^31 Default: 5 (In the shipped config.dat, this is overridden by the value 1.) Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_HEARTBEAT_LIMIT |
Maximum time (in seconds) to wait for a response from each of the Control‑M/Server processes, after issuing a Heartbeat check, before sending a message to the error handlers. Valid values: 1–2^31 Default: 360 Refresh Type: Recycle |
WD_INTERVAL |
Basic time unit interval, in minutes. When the value in either the WD_CTMEXIT_#_INTERVAL parameter or the WD_USEREXIT_#_INTERVAL parameter is multiplied by the value in this parameter, the resulting value is the number of minutes that must pass before reinvoking the exit script. For example, if the value of this parameter is 6 (minutes), and the value of the WD_CTMEXIT_1_INTERVAL parameter is 20, the script for system exit 1 will run once every 120 minutes (20 x 6 minutes). Valid values: 1–2^31 Default: 5 (In the shipped config.dat, this is overridden by the value 6.) Refresh Type: Recycle |
