Waittime Before Timeout

To determine the total length of time CA Automation Point waits before timing out, the following algorithms are used:

• If WAIT is specified-The values of WAIT and SYSWAIT are added together for the total wait time.
• If CMDWAIT is specified-The values of CMDWAIT and SYSWAIT are added together for the total wait time.
• If neither WAIT nor CMDWAIT is specified-The default values for CMDWAIT and SYSWAIT are added together for the total wait time.

Note: The SYSWAIT default is initially set to 20 seconds through a Configuration Manager option. This is a longer amount of time than the corresponding default value on CA OPS/MVS systems because the CA Automation Point OPER command needs to wait longer than, or at least as long as, it waits on the CA OPS/MVS system; otherwise, you will not receive all the responses from CA OPS/MVS.
