setHC <timeout>
This command is used to specify the maximum time interval for any one thread to
punch the liveness value. When the timeout is exceeded, a thread that has not
indicated it is alive will be reported as dead. After getting all the timeout values for
each of the threads in the system, the system application needs to define this value
and set it appropriately.
The valid range for <timeout> is from 100 to 5000 milliseconds.
Note:
If the value is too small, it is possible that false reports of dead threads will be
received.
