Tuning automatic association features

If you use the CQCC_AUTO_ASSOCIATE or CQCC_ASSOC_BATCH_SERIES environment variable to automatically determine associations, use the CQCC_RESTRICTIONS_TIMEOUT configuration parameter to limit extra processing during the batch. The timeout value controls the number of seconds that a restrictions check can be reused during CQCC_ASSOC_BATCH_SERIES log processing.

The integration normally rechecks the new associations each time interval by logging into the Rational® ClearQuest® user database and performing a restrictions query. The integration caches the most recent restrictions query results and reuses them for a maximum time before it checks them again. After the time is exceeded, a new Rational ClearQuest login and restrictions query are performed to ensure that the selected associations are still valid. To delay this login operation and query during batch processing, set the CQCC_RESTRICTIONS_TIMEOUT environment variable to an increased number of seconds.

set CQCC_RESTRICTIONS_TIMEOUT=600
