HeartBeatConfiguration

Heartbeat Configuration

The heart beat configuration controls how often heartbeats are issued, and how long before a record is considered to be outside of the heartbeat window.

The update time controls how often the heartbeat will be updated.

queue.Configuration.HeartBeat.UpdateTime = "sec(*%10)"; //set a heartbeat every 10 seconds

Once the heartbeat is outside of this window, the record is considered for re-queuing to another worker

queue.Configuration.HeartBeat.Time = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(35); //records with no heartbeat after 35 seconds are considered dead

How often the queue will check for records that need to be re-queued, because they are outside of the time window.

queue.Configuration.HeartBeat.MonitorTime = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(15); //check for dead records every 15 seconds

How many threads to use to update heartbeats. If you will de-queue many records at once, and you are using a short heartbeat window, you may need more than 1 thread.

queue.Configuration.HeartBeat.ThreadPoolConfiguration.ThreadsMax = 1;
