INFORMIXCONRETRY

The INFORMIXCONRETRY environment variable sets the maximum number of additional connection attempts that should be made to each database server by the client during the time limit that INFORMIXCONTIME specifies.

>>-setenv--INFORMIXCONRETRY--count-----------------------------><
 

count

is the number of additional attempts to connect to each database server.

For example, the following command sets INFORMIXCONRETRY to specify three additional connection attempts (after the initial attempt):

setenv INFORMIXCONRETRY 3

The default value for INFORMIXCONRETRY is one retry after the initial connection attempt. The INFORMIXCONTIME setting, described in the following section, takes precedence over the INFORMIXCONRETRY setting.
