Modify Job Monitoring

Scenario/Problem: You need to modify the job monitoring timeout value.

The job-monitoring configuration setting is modified using the ConversionTimeOut parameter. This value is the number of minutes a conversion should be in progress before the timer job restarts the conversion. The default is 5 minutes. The valid range of values is 1 to 60 minutes.
