RECOVERY_TIME option [database]

Function 

Sets the maximum length of time, in minutes, that the database server will take to recover from system failure.

Allowed values 

Integer, in minutes

Description 

This option is used with the CHECKPOINT_TIME option [database] to decide when checkpoints should be done.

Adaptive Server Anywhere uses a heuristic to estimate the recovery time based on the operations that have been performed since the last checkpoint. Thus, the recovery time is not exact.
