REQUEST_RESULT (for a service)
This REQUEST_RESULT element specifies the number of seconds the JGAS waits for the DVM
to respond to pending transactions.
Syntax

Child elements
There are no child elements.
Usage
You use the REQUEST_RESULT timeout to provide information to the user when a
Web service transaction is taking longer than expected. It specifies the number of seconds to wait
for the DVM to respond to the JGAS, after which the JGAS sends an HTTP 400 error page to the front-end
to inform the user that the request has taken too long to fulfill.
The front-end cannot recover from a HTTP 400 error page, and any Web service client application must send a new request.
REQUEST_RESULT timeout is not
set by default. This means the GWS never releases the DVM and will wait
until the DVM responds to the request. Usage example for Web service
<REQUEST_RESULT>100</REQUEST_RESULT>When configuring this setting, ensure you set the timeout less than the Common Gateway Interface (CGI) timeout of the web server you are using.
The REQUEST_RESULT timeout is referenced by the GWS
to release the DVM in charge of a service that has not responded in the given time frame.
