Error description
ISALite tool running "SyncProject" utility upon large projects (several thousands of Jobs) may abort with error as : ---- An unexpected error occurred retrieving the project status for project 'ProjectName'. An error occured when trying to call subroutine "*DataStage*DSR_SYNCPROJECT" in project "ProjectName". ---- This error have been proven to be caused by a timeout issue at near 5 minutes caused by large project to be inspected, as several "Server" traces of the report "failing" in various large projects show that "SyncProject" took longer than 5 minutes and less than 10 minutes to complete. The "-report" action of SyncProject involves a call to DSR_SYNCPROJECT(DSR.SUB.SYNCPROJ.CHECKJOBFILES) which checks all of the per/job files in a project, this is the only call that is likely to consume significant amounts of time. Enhancement is requested to increase ISALite timeout to report actual results for large projects regarding call to subroutine : DSR_SYNCPROJECT(DSR.SUB.SYNCPROJ.CHECKJOBFILES) ====
Local fix
Workaround : - Use "server side tracing" to capture the whole results of the "SYNCPROJECT" actions if such a failure occurs after the tool took a long time running, but no "core" file is found in the project's directory. ====
Problem summary
SyncProject tool makes a single client-server subroutine call that processes all job related files in a project. This call can take longer than the default timeout of 300 seconds for a larger project.
Problem conclusion
Changed the timeout for the problematic call to 1200 seconds which will allow for much larger projects.
Temporary fix
