Attribute
SocketIdleTimeCheckInterval (SITCI)
Purpose
Specifies the interval of time, in seconds, at which the driver checks the
connection for activity when Keep Connection Active is enabled (KeepConnectionActive=1). If no activity has been detected during this period,
the driver issues a lightweight query (Select 0) to the database to
maintain the connection. This functionality provides a method to keep open connections to
data sources that use Azure SQL Gateway, such as Azure SQL Database and Azure Synapse
Analytics, during periods of inactivity.
Valid Values
x
where:
- x
- is the interval of time, in seconds, at which the driver checks the connection for activity.
Default
1500 (seconds)
