Node:ExpireAfter, Next:homepattern, Previous:excludelinks, Up:control
This parameter controls the global value of the ExpireAfter parameter.
See Spamming and security. This parameter controls the maximum time in
minutes which a cfengine action is allowed to live. After this time
cfengine will try to kill the cfengine which seems to have hung and
attempt to restart the action.
ExpireAfter = ( time-in-minutes )
This parameter may also be set per action in the action
sequence by appending a pseudo-class called ExpireAftertime
.
For instance,
actionsequence = ( copy.ExpireAfter15 )
sets the expiry time parameter to 15 minutes for this copy command.
