Configuration

This page covers both Odoo server-level configuration (timeouts, workers) and Tower application settings.

Odoo Server Settings

SSH commands can take significant time to complete. To avoid Odoo timeout, we recommend increasing the timeout limits in the Odoo configuration file or in the command line parameters.
We also recommend using the Cetmix Tower Server Queue module to run commands and flight plans asynchronously with at least several workers per channel:

[options]
(...)
limit_time_cpu=300 ; 5 minutes, more is better
limit_time_real=360 ; 6 minutes, more is better
workers = 4
server_wide_modules = web,queue_job

(...)
[queue_job]
channels = root:2

ODOO_QUEUE_JOB_CHANNELS=root:2 odoo-bin --config=/etc/odoo/odoo.conf \
--load=web,queue_job \
--workers=4 \
--limit-time-cpu=300 \
--limit-time-real=360 \
...

This will allow you to run more commands and flight plans in parallel without the risk of Odoo timeout.
