3.6 Post-Installation Configurations

This section includes several recommendations to improve system performance.

3.6.1 Ping Timeout Setting

Novell recommends that all users must change the wait period for ping responses in the server.conf file to prevent issues when the Sentinel Log Manager server is heavily loaded (in an high traffic setup).

  1. Log in to the Sentinel Log Manager server as novell.

  2. Open the server.conf file for editing. This file is located in the Install_Directory/config directory.

  3. Find the wrapper.ping.timeout=60 setting and modify it to:

    wrapper.ping.timeout=0

  4. Save the file.

  5. Restart the Sentinel Log Manager process by using the following command:

    Install_Directory/bin/server.sh restart
