The following libraries or applications must be installed before running

<title>Parameters</title>
<section>
<title><varname>retries</varname> (integer)</title>
<para>
How many retries to attept to reconnect if connection to Postgres
server becomes broken.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>
Default value is 2 (that means three attepts to submit the query,
first will triger the connection error and two more (the value
of this parameter) after resetting the connection).
</emphasis>
</para>
<example>
<title>Set <varname>retries</varname> parameter</title>
<programlisting format="linespecific">
...
modparam("db_postgres", "retries", 3)
...
</programlisting>
</example>
</section>
<section>
<title><varname>timeout</varname> (integer)</title>
<para>
Setting this variable to any value larger than zero (which is the
default value) enables both a connection timeout and a query
timeout. If a connection attempt or a query takes longer than this
many seconds, the operation will be aborted and an error will be
returned.
</para>
<para>
Note that this timeout is applied to each underlying operation
(i.e. for each connection attempt), so depending on circumstances
and on the value of the <quote>retries</quote> variable, a single
query from the &sip; proxy's point of view can take longer than the
<quote>timeout</quote>.
</para>
<example>
<title>Set <varname>timeout</varname> parameter</title>
<programlisting format="linespecific">
...
modparam("db_postgres", "timeout", 10)
...
</programlisting>
</example>
</section>
<section>
<title><varname>tcp_keepalive</varname> (integer)</title>
<para>
Enable the TCP keepalive timer and set the number of seconds the
connection must be idle before to start sending keepalive packets.
Defaults to zero, which disables TCP keepalive packets.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>
Only supported on platforms which understand and support the
<quote>TCP_KEEPIDLE</quote> socket option.
</emphasis>
</para>
<example>
<title>Set <varname>tcp_keepalive</varname> parameter</title>
