Maximum Startup Attempts

Specifies the maximum number of times to attempt to start the appserver before giving up.

Data type Integer

 

Ping Interval

Specifies the frequency of communication attempts between the parent process, such as the node agent, and the process it has spawned, such as an appserver. Adjust this value based on your requirements for restarting failed servers. Decreasing the value detects failures sooner; increasing the value reduces the frequency of pings, reducing system overhead.

Data type Integer

 

Ping Timeout

When a parent process is spawning a child process, such as when a process manager spawns a server, the parent process pings the child process to see whether the child was spawned successfully. This value specifies the number of seconds that the parent process should wait (after pinging the child process) before assuming that the child process failed.

Data type Integer
Units Seconds

 

Automatic Restart

Data type Boolean
