Specifies the logscan polling period.

Syntax

pp=number[S | M | H | D ]; ...

Remarks

This option specifies the interval between log scans. Use the suffix s, m, h, or d to specify seconds, minutes, hours or days, respectively. The default is 1 minute. If you do not specify a suffix, the default unit of time is minutes.

Logscan polling occurs only when you are scheduling synchronizations or using the sp_hook_dbmlsync_delay hook.

For an explanation of logscan polling, see DisablePolling (p) extended option.

This option is identical to dbmlsync -pp.

This option has a short form and long form: you can use pp or PollingPeriod.

You can also store extended options in the database. For more information about dbmlsync extended options, see Introduction to dbmlsync extended options.
