argument that directs the output to a file. The --output is also not added if
the verify/stdout section is used.
+Set timeout="secs" to override default server logs advisor read lock timeout.
+This timeout is used by the test harness, once that the command has completed
+execution, to wait for the test server to write out server side log files and
+remove the lock that advised not to read them. The "secs" parameter is the not
+negative integer number of seconds for the timeout. This 'timeout' attribute
+is documented for completeness sake, but is deep test harness stuff and only
+needed for very singular and specific test cases. Avoid using it.

+Set delay="secs" to introduce a time delay once that the command has completed
+execution and before the <postcheck> section runs. The "secs" parameter is the
+not negative integer number of seconds for the delay. This 'delay' attribute
+is intended for very specific test cases, and normally not needed.
