  • 1.  MaxThreads setting for multiple CPU's

    Hi

    Using V6.7 on W2K with 1 hyperthreaded CPU and 8GB of memory we have a maxthreads setting of 20 in line with the recommended value when using WebsphereMQ.

    We are moving some of our servers to 2 CPU's to aid throughput. Should we adjust our maxtheads setting.

    I have read of a recommendation on a forum but nothing appears in the manuals on the subject.

    Thanks

    Hi the number of threads depends mostly on the speed of the cpu
    and the type of messages/files processed. if you have small quick
    files then you can utilize more concurrent threads if you are processing
    large files then you need fewer concurrent threads. Tuning with DataStage TX is an art as well as technical, which each system you
    tune having its on challanges, therefore why Ascential only provides
    starting tuning recommendations then it is up to you to fine tune the
    system based upon actual production volumes and processing requirements.

    Hi Tim,

    I was wondering , are use using the JCA connector to call maps from your 'websphere' application or do you connect to datastage TX maps in a different manner?

    FVDN - We use the standard Websphere MQ server adapter and Event Server triggering.

    Gary - Yes tuning is always individual but general guidance is what we pay our licence fee for.
