DataStage ABAP job running in the background aborts due to time-out

Troubleshooting


Problem

DataStage ABAP job aborts with the following error: Fatal: ABAP_E_00745`:`ABAP background job time-out occurred as defined using BG_JOB_TIMEOUT property.

Symptom

When we create a new job, it aborts in 10 minutes (600 sec) with the error:

ABAP background job time-out occurred as defined using BG_JOB_TIMEOUT property.

Is there any environment variable that needs to be set which defines this property? Existing jobs have the ABAP background time-out set to 100,000 seconds.
