Message Time to Live

Hi There

I have issues around forwarding message being dropped because they exceed the forwarding message time to live.

I cannot find anything in BOL or the net regarding changing the message time to live value to be higher, does anyone know where i change this setting ?

Thanx

The message time to live is 30 seconds and cannot be changed. However the tolerated time drift between servers is 30 minutes, so effectively a message can stay in traffic 30 minutes and 30 seconds. With such a long lifetime, I find it difficult to believe message are really dropped because of lifetime expiration. First of all, can you verify that there is no time drift between the servers involved?

Hi Remus

I just posted the complete scenario under the thread "Messages cannot be dispatched", i will mark this quesiton as resolved, we can continue on that thread, i will check server times now.

Thanx

Hi Remus

ANother point is that we are expecting to send very large messages over very slow netowkrs that will take hours to send, are you saying that is not possible with SB ?

Thanx

During transport a 'message' is an individual fragment, 90kb in size. The 90Kb have to reach the final destination within 30 minutes. Are you saying your network is slower than 60 bps?

Hi Remus

The server times are the same.

The network is +- 1KB per second, i doubt the 30 minutes is the issue , but i am definately expering the problem, but like i said my real concern is actually a related issue under the thread "Large Messages cannot be dispatched" lets continue there, Thank You
