can we configure ETC for a recovery step in recovery plans in SRM ?

Is it possible to specify ETC( exptected time to complete) for an individual step in a recovery plan while configuring it in SRM ?

Hi,

Are you asking about some specific step?

Generally, you can change timeout for command steps (and you can specify different timeout for each step),

Also, you can change timeout of power-on, power-off operations and of customization. These are global settings.

Thanks Michael, So, if we look at behaviour of this, if based on timeout configured if step execution times out will that step be skipped ? or it any way will execute to completion ?

This is documented pretty well in SRM admin guide:

http://www.vmware.com/pdf/srm_admin_5_0.pdf

pages 79 and 89.
