# BackoffSeconds

The maximum number of seconds that the Content component waits between attempts to obtain a lock. This parameter has an effect only when you are using Redis lock servers.

The exact amount of time that the server waits is random (but lower than this value), to prevent multiple servers attempting to get locks at the same time.

You can use MaxRetry to control the number of times Content attempts to obtain the lock.

NOTE: If you use a FlushLockFile, Content reattempts to obtain the lock every second, and `BackoffSeconds` has no effect.

Type: | Long
Default: | 30
Allowed Range: | Minimum: 1
