There are configuration settings that are set outside
of the system.
- I/O Timeout
- The I/O timeout is 300 seconds by default. That value can be
adjusted by creating BF_SOCKET_SELECT_TIMEOUT as an operating system
variable and giving it a value (in seconds). It should not be set
below 60 seconds. The value is read only at startup. You must stop
the system to change it, then restart. If the value is too low, then
the system may appear to hang under large parallel loads, such as
starting many jobs at once. The default value is appropriate for most
situations.
