Value |
A Long integer containing the delay number. |
Remarks
If several hundred users are logged
onto the same server when it goes down, there will be a problem when
it comes up if they all try to connect at once. This is enough of a
load to cause problems with the server. To prevent this from
happening the Connect control is programmed to wait a random amount
of time before connecting again. The delay will be a random number of
seconds between 5 and TransferDelay (uniform distribution).
The default value of TransferDelay is 60 seconds. It will not
be allowable to set this number below 10.
