-ti iqsrv16 database server option

Disconnects inactive connections.

Syntax

iqsrv16 -ti minutes ...

Default

240 (4 hours)

Applies to

All operating systems and database servers.

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 iqsrv16 since most connections will be over network links (TCP).

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.
