HOSTNAME_RETRY_COUNT - UCTL Manager configuration option
Description
The HOSTNAME_RETRY_COUNT option specifies the number of times that the Universal Control Manager will attempt to establish a connection with a specified Universal Broker before it ends with a connect error.
The Universal Control Manager will sleep for one second between connection attempts.
Connection errors occur for several reasons. A common reason is a failure to resolve the Universal Broker host name specified with the REMOTE_HOST option. This error can occur intermittently due to a temporary resource shortage or a temporary DNS problem. If your system is prone to host name resolution errors, it may help to have the Universal Control Manager retry the connection several times.
