ODM Extract fields
Admin/Meta Push
Data type that needs to be pushed.
Options are:
- NONE
- ADMIN
- META
- ADMINANDMETA
Admin/Meta Frequency (Mins)
Scheduled frequency, in minutes, for the Admin and Meta Data push.
Error Max Age (Hrs)
Number of hours since the error activation time for which the error manager retries saving the error.
Error Retry Expiration (Hrs)
Number of the hours since the error creation time that the error manager should activate the errors that have been given up. The default value is 0. This setting is read during the startup of ODM Extract publisher and removed after it is read. This value cannot be less than the OdmExtractErrorMaxAge value, but if that is the case, the code defensively uses this value as the OdmExtractErrorMaxAge value to ensure correct reactivation and expiration logic.
Error Suppress Error Period (Hrs)
Number of hours that ODM Extract Publisher does not report the error for retry. The ODM Extract Publisher reads this value at the start-up time and removes this attribute from the configuration file after the start-up. At run time, the ODM Extract Publisher generates the date and time when the period of suppressing errors should end after this value is read. Any error occurring before this date is only logged as a warning and not retried automatically by the error manager.
Error Retry Interval (Mins)
Interval, in minutes, between error retries.
Save Error Max Retries
Maximum number of attempts for the error manages to retry saving an error.
Save Error Retry Interval (Secs)
Interval in seconds that the error manager should wait to retry saving the error.
