DB2 Version 9.7 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

ReceiveTimeout CLI/ODBC configuration keyword

Specifies the time in seconds to wait for a reply from the server on an established connection before terminating the attempt and generating a communication timeout error.

db2cli.ini keyword syntax:

ReceiveTimeout = 0 | 1 |2 | ... | 32767

Default setting:

The client waits indefinitely for a reply from the server on an established connection.

Equivalent connection attribute:

SQL_ATTR_RECEIVE_TIMEOUT

Usage notes:

This keyword has no effect during connection establishment and is only supported for TCP/IP protocol.

One second is the smallest interval for checking the timeout value. Therefore, the timeout event can take up to an additional second after the set timeout value.
