-ti iqsrv15 server option

Disconnects inactive connections.

Syntax

iqsrv15 -ti minutes ...

Default

240 (4 hours)

Applies to

All operating systems and database servers.

This option has not been fully tested with servers in the cloud.

Remarks

Disconnects connections that haven't submitted a request for the specified number of minutes. The maximum value is 32767. A client computer in the middle of a database transaction holds locks until the transaction is ended or the connection is disconnected. The -ti option is provided to disconnect inactive connections, freeing their locks.

The -ti option is very useful when used in conjunction with iqsrv15 since most connections will be over network links (TCP).

The -ti option is useful only for local TCP/IP connections. Using -ti has no effect on connections to a local server using shared memory, but you can specify a timeout for the connection that applies to shared memory connections. By default, the personal database server does not start TCP/IP.

Setting the value to zero disables checking of inactive connections, so that no connections are disconnected. If the Idle connection parameter is not used, then the idle timeout value for TCP/IP connections is controlled by the -ti database server option. If both the -ti database server option and the Idle connection parameter are specified, then the idle timeout value is controlled by the connection parameter.
