<ExpirationAge> Element

SQL Server 2000

Specifies the amount of time to elapse before unsent messages of the associated notification class are considered to have expired.

Structure

<NotificationClasses>
   <NotificationClass>
      ...
      <ExpirationAge>

Element Characteristics

Characteristic	Description
Data Type	duration.
Default Value	None.
Occurrence	Optional once per <NotificationClass> node.
Updates	Can be added, deleted, and modified using NSControl Update.

Element Relationships

Relationship	Elements
Parent Node	<NotificationClass> Node

Remarks

If no <ExpirationAge> value is specified, notifications never expire. Notification Services continues to attempt delivery of all notifications until the retry schedule is exhausted.

The format of the XML duration data type is P0DT00H00M00S. For more information about XML data types, see Primitive XML Data Types in the Microsoft MSDN® Library.

Notifications that have expired per the <ExpirationAge> value will be ignored during any delivery attempts.
