IPOCC- Open Database Error- delayed response in case DB SQL is down

[arsha2]

in IPOCC IVR Editor, if Open DB has some SQL Server/DB link issue so Error response after 1 minutes for further action. I want to tear call with some Announcement/ call treatment but till 1 minutes call silence ( even wait music/ any announcement not work, can we minimize this timeout time.
As 1 minutes are too long to give any E response as DB server can be down any time so all user calls will be treat as no response.
Can anyone experience this DB server link down long timeout issue?

Anyone have experienced this db connection delayed timeout on IVR call flowr?
if how to handle to minimize time from default 60 second to 10/15 second or less?

I do not think there is a way. I created a global variable so my client can easily change the value when there is a known issue on their SQL server and then the task flow will bypass the DB check.

yes this very old known issue and many request has been launch to IPOCC team to improve it ( not big issue for them to handle it) but still no listening. I also again reach to CAM to improve in next Rls. but ....

Anyway, what type of global variable and logic is used to bypass DB connection?

Just create a new Global variable then you can add it to supervisor home file to slide it between 1 or 2. In the task flow you check whether the new variable equals to 1 or 2 before open the DB and bypass DB if =2.
