Set the TCPKEEPALIVE parameter to equal TRUE

Summary

Note:
ArcSDE software, including the application server, command tools, and SDK with C and Java APIs, was deprecated at ArcGIS 10.2.2 and is no longer distributed.

Instructions provided describe how to set the TCPKEEPALIVE = TRUE for ArcSDE. Setting this parameter removes any detached gsrvr processes running on the server.

Note:
TCPKEEPALIVE does not clean up entries in the SDE.PROCESS_INFORMATION table.

Procedure

1. Start a DOS prompt window.
2. Run the following command: >sdeconfig -o alter -v TCPKEEPALIVE=TRUE -i <service> -u sde -p ****

3. After the 'sdeconfig -o alter' command is run, check the state of the TCPKEEPALIVE parameter by running: >sdeconfig -o list -P TCPKEEPALIVE -i <service> -u sde -p ****

4. Restart the ArcSDE service.
