Specify the maximum time interval in a permanent connection in the dccltinquretime operand of the client environment definition. If the dccltinquretime operand is omitted from the client environment definition, the value specified in the rap_inquire_time operand of the RAP-processing listener service definition becomes the maximum time interval in a permanent connection.

The maximum time interval in a permanent connection is the maximum interval between the time that a CUP issues an inquiry to a RAP-processing server and the time it makes its next inquiry. The CUP executing process or the RAP-processing server monitors the maximum time interval in a permanent connection.

Figure A-5 Applicable range of the maximum time interval in a permanent connection

In the above figure, t1 to t3 indicate the monitoring times for the RAP-processing server within the applicable range of the maximum time interval in a permanent connection.
