FTACS Task Config (ACS)

FTACS Task Config stores the policies of remote procedure call (RPC) tasks, for example timeouts, retries, and rollback. You can set each entry to Active or Disabled.

Where to find parameter descriptions: The list shows the first line of each description under the key. Click Edit to read the full text in the Description field.

When to use it

Use FTACS Task Config to manage the task entries in the .properties file. Each entry has a key, a value, a value type (INT or LIST), and an optional description. You can add single entries and save changes to many entries in one batch.

Before you start

  • Open the ACS dashboard and select FTACS Task Config.

  • If the configuration does not exist, import a properties file to create the first snapshot.
