Recommended Configurations for Setting the Number of Transactions That Siebel Remote Applies Before a Commit

The following table describes recommended configurations for setting the number of transactions that Siebel Remote applies before a commit. The DockTxnsPerCommit parameter sets the number of transactions that Siebel Remote applies to the local database before it does a commit. You must set this configuration parameter to a value that satisfies the requirements at your site. The default value is 500.

Situation Recommended Configuration

The user uses the Synchronize Database menu item of the File menu in a Siebel application.

Set the DockTxnsPerCommit parameter to a high value. A merged transaction does not lock out another user. This configuration improves performance.

The user uses a stand-alone synchronizer.

Set the DockTxnsPerCommit parameter to a high value only if the program is the only active user on the server database. For more information, see Using the Stand-Alone Synchronizer.

The Siebel application applies transactions while the user accesses the server database through this Siebel application.

Set the DockTxnsPerCommit parameter to a low value to prevent locking out other users while Siebel Remote merges transactions.
