PATCHES
FIX TIMEOUT ISSUE
When running release 12 Oracle E-Business Suite
RDA inside diagnostics, occasionally the execution
has a tendency to timeout due to the quantity of
data being collected. The workaround (found in the
FAQ)
was to follow the instructions provided by note
427278.1,
which explains how to execute this test from the
command line. By installing patches 6631337 and
6503842, the previously hard-coded timeout values
have been moved to profile options. In the event
RDA (or any other diagnostic) runs longer than expected,
the timeout issue can be easily resolved by increasing
the value of one (or more) of these newly defined
profile options. The patch read-me's will provide
complete and detailed information on default values
and how these should be set.
