Configuring timeout for policy updates
The timeout setting for the PolicyUpdate service determines how long the system waits for a printer to respond after
it is initially connected during a policy update.
Note: If a large eSF application or several eSF applications are included with a hybrid solution, then you may need to
increase the default timeout for policy updates in order to allow enough time for policy updates that include eSF
application deployments to complete.
