Configuration Parameters for PeopleSoft Connections
This table lists the configuration parameters for PeopleSoft connections with their defaults. It describes the PeopleSoft options that you can override on the Options tab of a connection definition. The values are case-sensitive so be sure to capitalize as shown in the table entries. Parameters are listed in alphabetical order.
Parameter Name |
Default Value |
Description |
---|---|---|
DebugRuncontrol |
Y |
Used for diagnostic purposes to troubleshoot issues related to overriding run control values during job definition. If set, it will include a tab where you can view the run control HTML, as well as write this file in the corresponding services directory by GUID for the PeopleSoft service. |
ENCRYPTPW |
Y |
Turn on/off the encryption of the password. |
HTTPAUTH |
1 |
A flag to specify if the username and password should be included in the URL when logging into PeopleSoft webserver for runtime parameter overrides.
|
PSCheckServer |
Y |
Turns on/off checking of the Process Scheduler’s heartbeat. |
PSDBConnection |
2 |
Specifies the number of connections opened to the PeopleSoft server on connection initialization. |
PSDISPOSEWAIT |
20 |
This parameter specifies the number of seconds to wait for output to be posted before recognizing the process as a completed process. The default value for PSDISPOSEWAIT is 20 seconds. Set PSDISPOSEWAIT to 0 if the adapter should wait (indefinitely) till the output is posted. Lastly setting PSDISPOSEWAIT to -1 will cause the adapter to ignore the posting status and job will complete as soon a the process finishes. |
PSDLSearchLimit |
200 |
This parameter restricts the number of user IDs or role IDs fetched in the search pop-up window from the adapter. The default value is 200. |
PSFinalStatusWai |
0 (no status check) |
Specifies an interval of time (in seconds) before doing a secondary status check after detecting a Completed status. This is an additional buffer of time to accommodate those occasions when PeopleTools switches final status shortly after the job completes. This value can be subtracted from the PSWaitOutput value if both parameters are used to delay output after completion. If this parameter is greater than 30 seconds, set the PSWaitOutput to 0. |
PSOutputPostingTimeout |
0 |
After the step is completed, if the status of the process is stuck in POSTING, this specifies the number of seconds TA Master should wait before marking the step as UNSUCCESSFUL. |
PSRunServerOption |
1 |
The default server the adapter should use to submit process requests when running PeopleTools version 8.45 and later. There are four options: 1 – Any (default) 2 – Specific 3 – Specific OS 4 – Primary |
PSStatusGetRetryCnt |
5 |
The number of retries the TA Master should performed when checking the status of the process and found none. This value is intended for internal use. |
PSStatusGetRetryCnt |
3 |
The number of retries the TA Master should performed when establishing a connection to the PeopleSoft database before marking the connection as failed. |
PSTimeout |
3 x the heartbeat stipulated in the Process Schedule server definition(180 seconds) |
The interval in seconds without a heartbeat before considering that the PeopleSoft server is not responsive. |
PSUseRunStatus |
N |
When running API aware processes in PeopleSoft and this parameter is set to Y, the adapter ignores the PRCSRTNCODE value and uses the RUNSTATUS to determine the Scheduler job status. |
PSWaitOutput |
30 |
Number of seconds to wait for PeopleSoft job output. If used with PSFinalStatusWait, this value can be reduced by the value specified in that parameter. If the PSFinalStatusWait value is greater than 30 seconds, set this value to 0. |
REQUESTTIMEOUT |
300 |
The timeout interval (in seconds) when sending requests to server during job definition. A timeout error is displayed to the user if the request, such as get process name or get run control, does not complete within the time specified here. |
RETENTIONDAYS |
7 |
The number of days the process result is viewable in PeopleSoft Process Monitor before it is purged by Process Scheduler. The value populates the PeopleTools table field PSPRCSQUE.PT_RETENTION_DAYS at runtime. |
