003306: The operation returned because the server timeout period was exceeded.

Description

The operation could not be completed because it took longer than the current timeout setting for the service. Server timeouts are configured on a service to protect services from being used to do larger volumes of work than the administrator intended.

Solution

Increase the server timeout setting and attempt the operation again.

Some operations can be executed asynchronously. Asynchronous processes use separate services that can be configured with a longer timeout setting. If available, run the operation asynchronously. Review the tool help for more information.
