Setting up global transport values

You set global transport attributes that apply to all FTP Scripting gateways. If you are not defining any FTP Scripting gateways, this section does not apply to you.

The FTP Scripting transport uses a locking mechanism that prevents more than one FTP Scripting instance from accessing the same gateway at the same time. Default values are supplied for such things as how long a gateway instance waits to obtain the lock and how many times it attempts to retrieve it if the lock is in use. You can use these default values or change them.

  1. Click Account Admin > Profiles > Community Participant.
  2. Click Gateways.
  3. Select Global Transport Attributes from the Gateway List.

    If you updated either Maximum Lock Time (Seconds) or Maximum Queue Time (Seconds) when you specified global transport values during the creation of targets, those updated values are reflected here.

  4. If the default values are appropriate for your configuration, click Cancel. Otherwise, continue with the remaining steps in this section.
  5. Click the Edit icon next to FTP Scripting Transport.
  6. To change one or more of the values, type the new value or values. You can change:
  7. Click Save
