Automatic closedown can occur when no stations are logged on, or when no activity has taken place for a specified idle period timeout. The following must also be set:
The minimum number of copies must be set to 0 (zero) for all COMSTP programs (either through the Subsystem dialog box in Developer or by using COMS Utility).
The automatic stop time is set by using the Administration command :AST+.
If the automatic stop time and minimum number of copies are greater than zero, the application is restart immediately after closing down.
The idle timeout value has been set to a value in the range 1 through 98, by using the Administration command :TIM.
Idle timeout can be applied individually to COMSTP programs and LSS from options within the OLTP category configuration properties of the Segment class in Builder. Refer to the Agile Business Suite Developer User Guide for more information. The System timeout is dependent on the COMSTP timeouts, as System timeout takes effect only after all COMSTP programs have closed down.
