Client communication parameters

Parameter

Description

Type

ClientCleanupInterval

Interval, in seconds, between clean-ups of pending clients.
After each such period, clients that did not give the cell a notice of life are disconnected.

Number

ClientPollTimeOut

Maximum time, in milliseconds, the cell waits for a client request before it continues processing.

Number

ClientSendTimeOut

Time interval, in milliseconds, that the cell has to send a packet to a client on the lowest communication level.

Number

DateFormat

Format used to display time stamps in the date slot.
A default value of CIM indicates use of the Common Information Model (CIM) format from the Desktop Management Force Group.
DateFormat parameters use the syntax of %[letter]. The following table lists the DateFormat parameters for Solaris; for other operating systems, see their documentation.

String

SynchronizeTimeOut

Maximum time, in milliseconds, the cell waits for synchronization before dropping a connection.

Number

If the cell receives an event with an empty value for the date slot, it sets the date slot to the textually formatted value of the date_reception slot. That value is determined by the DateFormat parameter. This assignment is performed only once, when the event first enters the cell. If the cell is shut down and restarted, the value of date remains the same even if the DateFormat parameter has been modified in the interval.

The CIM format is yyyymmddhhmmss.mmmmmmsutc, where:

  • yyyy = year 
  • mm= month 
  • dd= day 
  • hh= hour, based on 24-hour clock 
  • mm= minutes 
  • ss= seconds 
  • mmmmmm= microseconds 
  • s= + or - 
  • utc= offset in minutes from UTC; UTC is the Universal Time Coordinate system

The following table lists the parameters from the Solaris platform. Other platforms, including UNIX and Microsoft Windows platforms, might have slight differences.
