!System Preference


The function preference, DB PRCSS THREADS, is used to flag specific update processes to take advantage of multiple processors.

This preference can be set for the following functions :
*[UPCALC]
*[UPUNDO]
*[UTTP]
*[UEGTS]

The preference value (thread number) should be between 1 and 10. It is highly recommended that this value be set to around 75 percent of the CPUs (Cores) available. If a value is entered greater than 75% of CPUs available, the process may not complete.  

For example, a database server with 2 Quad cores should be set to no higher than 6 CPU’s for update processes.

This preference can be set by function ([IMFN]).
