An administrator can add the following system properties to manage transaction quotas.

Description

</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>

glide.quota.manager.heartbeat

</td><td>

The number of seconds between the start of each Quota Manager heartbeat. This value determines how often the Quota Manager checks for transactions that exceed a quota and how often it writes status in the log file.Type: Integer

 Default value: 1

 Location: Add to the \[sys\_properties\] table

</td></tr><tr><td>

glide.quota.manager.minimum\_transaction\_time

</td><td>

The minimum number of seconds a transaction must run before the Quota Manager matches it to a transaction quota. ServiceNow recommends setting this value to at least 1 second to avoid performance issues. For optimal performance, set this value to the value of your most restrictive quota. For example, if your most restrictive quota cancels transactions longer than 1 minute, set the minimum transaction time to 60 seconds.Type: Integer

 Default value: 1

 Location: Add to the \[sys\_properties\] table

</td></tr><tr><td>

glide.quota.manager.debug

</td><td>

Controls whether to display \(true\) or hide \(false\) additional debugging information related to the Quota Manager. Debugging information includes running transactions, canceled transactions, and what quotas are matched to transactions.Type: True \| False

 Default value: True

 Location: Add to the \[sys\_properties\] table

</td></tr></tbody>
