I was wondering if anyone has increased the default value of 10 threads for parallel event triggering and if helped with triggering events more closely to their scheduled time.
The way we are setup, on the top of the hour we notice a little bit of a delay from the time the apps are scheduled to the time they actually start. We have this actually more than just the top of the hour but of course that is the most noticeable time. Apps may be schedule for 11PM but don't actually begin executing until a minute or more after their scheduled time. I have had to setup a few apps to trigger in a few mins before and then delay submission time at the job level so that it runs on time.
Below is pulled from the manual for 12.1 regarding parallel event triggering. Just looking for anything that can be looked at to have apps run closer to their schedule.
Specify the Maximum Number of Parallel Threads for Triggering Events
The CA Workload Automation DE server is a Java-based multithreaded application. By default,
the server uses up to ten threads for triggering Events in parallel. However, you can optimize the
triggering of parallel Events based on the server workload and the CPU and memory resources
available on the server computer. To increase or decrease the maximum number of Events the
server can trigger in parallel, modify the maximum number of parallel threads accordingly.
Note: The server restart is not required for the modified value to take effect.
Important! Contact CA Support before modifying the maximum number of parallel
threads for triggering Events
