Improvement
This improvement enables you to configure SESSION_TIMEOUT value for a Distributed Availability Group (DAG) replica in Microsoft SQL Server 2016 and 2017. Before installing this update, when you try to change SESSION_TIMEOUT value, you may receive the following error message:
Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line LineNumber 'SESSION_TIMEOUT' is not a recognized ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP option.
After applying this update, you can configure the SESSION_TIMEOUT value. For example:
CREATE AVAILABILITY GROUP [distributedag]
WITH (DISTRIBUTED)
AVAILABILITY GROUP ON
'cag' WITH
(
LISTENER_URL = 'tcp://SQLServerName:5022',
AVAILABILITY_MODE = ASYNCHRONOUS_COMMIT,
FAILOVER_MODE = MANUAL,
SEEDING_MODE = AUTOMATIC,
SESSION_TIMEOUT = 10
),
'nag' WITH
(
LISTENER_URL = 'tcp://SQLServerName:5022',
AVAILABILITY_MODE = ASYNCHRONOUS_COMMIT,
FAILOVER_MODE = MANUAL,
SEEDING_MODE = AUTOMATIC,
SESSION_TIMEOUT = 10
);
GO
