PRB: Large IsAlive Polling Interval Is Accepted but Ignored

 * }

Q179475

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit (SDK)
 * Microsoft Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition version 4.0

-

SYMPTOMS
Cluster Administrator allows you to set a very large value for the IsAlive polling interval. However, IsAlive is called more frequently than specified. For example, a value of 100,000,000 milliseconds (more than 27 hours) results in an IsAlive call roughly every six minutes.

STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
You can determine the correct IsAlive polling interval by logging an event every time IsAlive is called and enabling logging for the cluster server. If you use the Resource Type AppWizard to generate your resource DLL, you can compile with LOG_VERBOSE defined to log a message for each call to IsAlive.
