Description

The JOB_RETENTION option specifies the default number of seconds that a disconnected UCMD Server, running with network fault tolerance, waits for a reconnection request from the UCMD Manager after a user process has completed.

This situation could occur if the network connection between the UCMD Manager and UCMD Server is lost. Since the UCMD Server is using network fault tolerance, it waits for the UCMD Manager to reestablish the network connections.

If the user process ends while the UCMD Server and UCMD Manager are disconnected, JOB_RETENTION specifies how long the UCMD Server should wait for the UCMD Manager to reconnect before the UCMD Server ends. If the UCMD Server does end, the UCMD Manager cannot reconnect to it; it must restart.

Note

The UCMD Manager JOB_RETENTION option can override this option.
