Middleware recovery Boost parameters options

Dear Madam/Sir

We would like to have the feasibility to change the way that is divided the daily interval of 30minutes of Recovery Boost. It should be useful to have the possibility of customization of thefollowing Middleware Recovery boost settings:

1) The number of intervals of the day

2) The duration of the intervals of the day

 

For example, instead of using the default 6 intervals of 5 minutes, it could be useful to have more intervals (e.g. 15 of 2min each one), so we can handle efficiently more potential abends during the day.

 

Kind regards

Konstantinos

    Would it be feasible to set the default duration of Middleware boost interval to less than 5 minutes?


    Kind regards

    .It is not correct that there is a default of 6 5-minute boost periods since recovery process boosts cover more than just boosts for middleware region startup. The customer already has full control over for which eligible applications middleware region startup boost is to be activated which is intended to help such startup. The customer already can control when such startup occurs. Allowing identification of the duration for a given middleware region startup boost, while possible, is unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan.
