Setting preferences

The database feedback preferences can be set on the Metatude Dialogue Server (MDS). Type ? in the console window of the MDS to see a list of options.

You can specify three options:

·	Activation limit: How often should the unsuccessful execution of a template be retried (default is 6 times)

·	Activation period: The time between retries (default is 4 hours)

·	Delete after: How long before unsuccessfully executed templates are deleted from the Dialogue server (default is 10 days)

To change the activation limit, enter the command dfoalc in the console window of the MDS. Then enter the number of times a template should be retried.

To change the activation period, enter the command dfoapc in the console window of the MDS. Then specify the number of hours between retries.

To change the period after which unsuccessful templates are deleted, enter the command dfoddac in the console window of the MDS. Then specify the number of days that unsuccessful templates will be kept on the server. Unsuccessful templates will automatically be deleted when a template is deleted, or when a project is completed.
