Connection Retry Interval
If Hub is unable to connect to an IBM i Agent, it attempts to reconnect based on a retry interval. Common scenarios that cause the connection to fail are:
- The Agent is stopped
- The specified port on the IBM i LPAR is not enabled for listening
- The network connection is unavailable
The default for this interval is 30 seconds. This means that Hub will continuously attempt to reconnect to the Agent if it is inaccessible for any reason. To update this value manually to use a value other than the current default set the RETRY_TIME parameter in a system’s config file. For example, to set the interval to 60 seconds the line in the config file should read:
RETRY_TIME 60
Note: Setting the parameter to zero will result in the default of 30 seconds being used.
