Error message when you execute a linked server query in SQL Server: "Timeout Expired"

Hi Viewers, In our production environment today we received following error.

Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' reported an error. Execution terminated by the provider because a resource limit was reached. [OLE/DB provider returned message: Timeout expired] OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' ICommandText::Execute returned 0x80040e31: Execution terminated by the provider because a resource limit was reached.].

Actually this error message received in one of the job history. Inside of the job is having the statements which will run the update or DML operation on one of the Linked server. There we got the error.

We tried a lot and finally we got the following KB article workarounds. It was very helpful.
