(Optional) Setting the Bucket Size User Property for Siebel Outlook Add-In
This topic describes how to set a value for the Bucket Size user property of the Messaging Client Data Service business service. The Bucket Size user property setting determines the number of Siebel data records that the Siebel Add-In Update Agent downloads to each user’s local cache for display in Microsoft Outlook each time the local cache is initialized or refreshed. If the value set for the Bucket Size user property is large, then it can cause timeout errors during the data download process. If you do not set a value for the Bucket Size parameter, then the default value of 2000 is used.
