FTIMEOUT
The FTIMEOUT system initialization parameter specifies a timeout interval for requests made on files that are opened in RLS mode.
- FTIMEOUT={30|number}
- The timeout interval is in seconds, from 1 through 4080 (sixty
eight minutes) and indicates how long VSAM should wait before terminating
a request and returning an exception condition.
The default is 30 seconds.
FTIMEOUT applies to transactions that do not have a deadlock timeout interval active. If a time value is specified for the DTIMOUT keyword of the TRANSACTION definition, this value is used as the file timeout value for that transaction.
