Configure the service startup timeout for databases to come online

Note: For information on overriding default configuration settings, refer to Modify configuration settings.

Edit the Historical configuration settings file to adjust the timeout value for databases to come online during a service startup. In the Network Management Console (NMC), you can view the status of database monitoring under the Historical service Database Status node.

To configure the timeout for the databases to come online during startup

1. In the %DNADataRoot%\Historical\config\Settings directory, either create or open the Historical.json file.

2. In the file, configure the timespan for databases to initially come online.

   In the example below, the databases have five minutes to come online during the startup of the Historical service.

   {

   "Historical": {

   "DBsOnlineTimeout": "00:05:00"

   }

   }

   Important: This setting is only used during startup, and will take effect on the next service restart.
