Auto start options - where to configure

Question

Hi

I’ve been digging around in Dublin looking for where I set up auto restart and auto start features. I’ve found the config settings heartbeatInterval, pollingInterval and heartbeatValidForPeriod. Does anyone have a definition as to what these values control?
 

Also these values all appear to be about restarting a stopped instance – where do I configure auto-start? i'm using the PDC bits

Thanks

Richard,

Autostart feature is planned for the upcoming Dublin milestone hence not part of the PDC bits. It will be supported in Win 7 and Windows 2008 R2.

Richard,

I think they are knobs for the instance restart service - looking for expired locks in the DB and spinning the instances up again.
