Other command actions can also interfere with daily maintenance when certain qualifiers are
used in the commands, or under certain circumstances. For example, certain test commands,
when used with the modifier continuously, could interfere with daily maintenance. However,
such command actions are not typically used by customer administrators doing routine
administration, and are less likely to disrupt daily maintenance routines than are the add,
change, duplicate, remove, and set command actions.
Incomplete Command Time-Out
A time-out feature exists on the Maintenance-Related System Parameters screen. Use change
system parameters maintenance to access the screen. The time-out feature improves the
operation of daily maintenance by allowing maintenance routines to run that might otherwise not
run. It also helps to prevent the loss of translations that were not saved with a save
translation, and were also not saved because daily maintenance was prevented from
running prior to the system reset. Highlights of the feature include:
● Options for blank, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 hours (the default is 2 hours)
● The blank option indicates that the feature is not active
● Only commands that block the running of daily maintenance (add, change, duplicate,
remove, and set) are affected
● All logins will time-out if any of these commands are active for the prescribed time (except
for the “blank” option)
● The feature applies to all logins, regardless of type (init, dadmin, craft, inads) or
permissions granted to the specific login ID of an administration or maintenance user
● The corresponding “time-out” entry is appended to the list history log
The Command Time-out field can be viewed by customer administrators. A craft, init, dadmin,
or inads login is required to change the option for the field. Figure 47: Maintenance-Related
System Parameters (change system-parameters maintenance) on page 977 shows the
Maintenance-related System Parameters screen for Communication Manager.
Figure 48: Command Time-out Entry on
list history on page 977 shows an example of the LIST
HISTORY screen with the “time-out” entry. The final line indicates that change
system-parameters maintenance was being executed when the time-out period of 2
hours expired.
