How the two-phase commit protocol handles failures in the chapter on multiphase commit protocols in the IBM Informix: Dynamic Server Administrator's Guide

TXTIMEOUT specifies the amount of time that a participant in a distributed query waits before it initiates participant recovery.

This parameter is used only for distributed queries that involve a remote database server. Nondistributed queries do not use this parameter.

To modify TXTIMEOUT dynamically use the onutil SET command. Example:

% onutil
1> SET TXTIMEOUT 60;
