Execution Timeout using powershell Get-SwisData

Hello All,

I have a script to export logs (from Log Analyzer) daily from the database using the Get-SwisData command from the SwissPowerShell module. I have already made my script export logs in batches of 1 hour to keep the size of the individual export file from being too large. Certain hours of the day we must capture larger amounts of logs than others, as the command sometimes timesout with "Get-SwisData : Execution Timeout Expired"

Is there any parameter that would let me increase the timeout value?

Thanks.

Can you post your script so that we can understand the calls? There may be a way to optimize the query or the exports.

Get-SwisData has a -TimeOut parameter (in seconds; default is 30). Like this:

$swis = Connect-Swis blah blah

Get-SwisData $swis "SELECT sluggish FROM superslow" -timeout 120
