If you use the in-process server implementation, the OracleAS Reports Services handles client requests to run reports by entering all requests into a job queue. When one of the server's engines becomes available, the next job in the queue is dispatched to run. Engines are *shut down automatically* after having been idle for a period of time that you specify. You can also set the engineResponseTimeOut parameter - the maximum amount of time (in minutes) for an engine to update the status of the job while running a report in your environment. If it takes longer than this amount of time to update the job status for some reason (e.g., due to the engine hanging or a long blocking SQL query), Reports Server terminates the job.
