The maximum number of seconds to wait between transaction log scans.
60
An integer from 5 to 86400.
The value of the scan_sleep_max parameter is the maximum number of seconds that can elapse before the Log Reader component scans the mirror log device for a transaction to be replicated, after a previous scan yields no such transaction.
For less replication latency in an infrequently updated database, Sybase recommends lower number settings for the scan_sleep_max parameter.
If the primary database is continuously updated, the value of the scan_sleep_max parameter may not be significant to Mirror Replication Agent performance.
