Defines the number of seconds between connection attempts to the database if no connection is established. If this field is not defined in the services.cfg file, then db_seconds_between_retries defaults to 30 seconds. If a connection to the database exists, then no further attempt is made.

demarshaller_stack_size

Defines the stack size. The default setting is usually acceptable. Before editing this setting, contact BMC Support.

demarshaller_threads=5

The default value is 5.

Defines the maximum number of concurrent threads that the MVMM Application Service uses to listen on the TCP port. This number should be equal to or lower than the number of threads in threads=. This is a tuning parameter and generally should not be modified.
