ASIQTIMEOUT environment variable

Setting

ASIQTIMEOUT = nnn

Operating system

Optional but recommended in multiplex environments.

Description

The Sybase IQ Agent waits indefinitely for a process to complete. Setting a wait time is recommended when creating or synchronizing query servers for a multiplex with a very large catalog store. Large catalog stores extend the time needed for the dbbackup part of synchronization, and increasing the wait time accommodates a larger synchronize.

This variable overrides the default wait time of five minutes, and the argument nnn is the number of minutes for the Sybase IQ Agent to wait. For example:

NoteMake these settings before you invoke the agent startup option. See “Before you Install” and “Starting the Sybase IQ Agent” in the Sybase IQ Installation and Configuration Guide and “Running the Sybase IQ Agent” in Introduction to Sybase IQ.
