Connection Timeout
The connection timeout is not configurable.
Linux and Unix Connection Timeout
On Unix platforms, the client performs a connect on the socket. If the socket is busy or unavailable, the client performs a select on the socket with the timeout set to 10 seconds (hardcoded). If the select call returns before the timeout, then the client is able to connect. If not then it fails. This prevents the situation where some Unix operating systems can block for several minutes when Luna PCIe HSM is unavailable.
Windows Connection Timeout
On Windows platforms, connect is called without select, relying upon the default Windows timeout of approximately 20 seconds.
