Hello Forum Members
My Bo server has the following configuration
Bo Xi R3 - with Sp5
Clustered
Users schedule some jobs through application which need to run only once .
Once they schedule this it shows as a pending jobs until it recah a specific schedule time (This is normal behaviour).
My issue is if there as 100 pending jobs in the system scheduled by above application , if some users using infoview and select some report and click run now using the scheduler it also goes to pending job and it didnt run at all.
I check the Adapative job server setting , and I have 60 concurrent jobs.
is there is any setting I need to set to avoid this pending jobs (ie . Job click by user using info view as Run Now)
[Moderator note - moved to the CMC forum]Each job server has a limit on the number of concurrent jobs it can run. You can consider adding more job servers or increasing the limit. A more pragmatic approach would be to space out the schedules.
Another option might be to create a Job Server that only the account used by the Application has rights to and have the application specify this Job Server when the schedule is created. That would effectively create a queue for that set of scheduled reports. Then the User’s interactive schedules would use the normal queue. The two sets of scheduled reports shouldn’t conflict with each other then.
Good in theory, but I don’t believe it works in practice. We tried this with server groups in BI4, you can set it all up nicely in the CMC…but when the reports actually run they use whichever job server they please. That was server groups, I don’t believe it is any different for servers…we did raise it with SAP, they just said that is how it (doesn’t) work. I am pretty sure someone has created an idea for this on the ideas place.
