Changing the queue item expiry

The queue item expiry is the amount of time an item will be sitting on a queue before being deleted from the queue. You must also indicate the measurement of time you wish to use. Use ’s’ to indicate intervals in seconds, ’m’ for minutes, ’h’ for hours and ’d’ for days. For example, a value of 2 m indicates that an item is removed from the queue when 2 minutes passes from the time it was originally created until the time of the poll.

To change the queue item expiry:

  1. Connect to the repository where the CTS instance is located.

  2. Click the Administration > Content Transformation Services node.

  3. Click the CTS Instances node or link.

  4. Select the CTS instance that you want to configure from the list of available instances.

  5. Click Tools > Content Transformation Services > Configure > Service.

  6. In the Configure CTS instance screen, enter a number to represent the queue item expiry time in the Max Queue Item Age field.

  7. Select a time measurement value from the drop down.

  8. Click OK.
