Background Processes
emxMetrics.MetricsReports.TimeStampLimitOnReports=2
emxMetrics.Background.Polling.TimeInterval=1 
emxMetrics.Background.Polling.TimeOutLimit=60 

Edit as needed. The polling properties are set in seconds.

Configures background processing for reports.

All report requests are handled as background processes. After the background process starts, the system polls the database for the results at specific intervals. If the results are generated before a specified time-out period, the results are displayed immediately to the user. If report results are not ready by the time-out limit, an alert box pops up to tell the user that the report is being run in the background.

These settings are influenced by the setting for the emxFramework.BackgroundProcess.NumberOfThreads property in the emxSystem.properties file. This property specifies the number of threads to be started in the background process pool for searching a large set of data. See emxSystem.properties for Search and Advanced Search.
