Blocking Lock Timeout

A blocking lock timeout feature is available to avoid excessively long blocking lock waits. When used, this feature returns error UTIM_OUT (827) to the caller of the lock request. The function ctLOKTIMOUT() is used to set, change and clear this timeout feature.

A FairCom DB configuration keyword has been defined to set a value for a blocking lock timeout on server startup. Specify the following in your ctsrvr.cfg file:

  • BLOCKING_LOCK_TIMEOUT_SEC
