Server idle timeout

The SRVIDLETIMEOUT parameter specifies the period, in minutes, of inactivity after which the connection between the Client daemon and the CICS® server is closed.

SRVIDLETIMEOUT=<number>

Description: Set the value in the range 1 - 1080 to specify the period in minutes. The period starts when the number of outstanding units of work on the connection is zero. If a server connection times out, the Client daemon behaves in the same way as when the cicscli -x=<servername> command is issued and the value of the srvretryinterval parameter is ignored. The connection is automatically reestablished when a Client application sends the next ECI, EPI, or ESI request and the srvretryinterval parameter is re-enabled.
This parameter is in the SERVER section of the configuration file.
Default value: If this parameter is not specified, the default value is 0.
Configuration Tool: In the Configuration Tool, you can set the value of SRVIDLETIMEOUT in the Server idle timeout (min) field in the Server connection page. This page can be accessed by selecting an existing server in the CICS Servers section of the CICS Transaction Gateway pane or by creating a server definition. To create a server definition, click Options > New Server or click the New Server icon.
