4.10 Delivery Timeout

Every time a metric is sent to the remote server, a response is generated and returned to our DSR system indicating that it was successfully delivered. This is very useful as it allows the user to detect which metrics failed to arrive and they are saved as pending and dispatched again when all messages are issued in the next interval. The disadvantage due to this Delivery Timeout parameter is that, the DSR waits until it receives the reply. Based on this situation, the user has the capability to select the level of delivery timeout or none at all. If none is selected, all metrics are considered as delivered even if they never arrive.
