Maximum simultaneous jobs settings in program settings tab

Postby sponnapalli on Wed Jul 24, 2013 2:19 pm

Hi,

We observed that while running more than 12 jobs simultaneously in the same profile in syncovery the one after 12 that is the 13th job is getting skipped and it is running either the 14th (some times skips even this and runs 15th) or the next job. The ones that are skipped are not run at all. We think this is because of the settings "Maximum simultaneous jobs 12" in the program settings tab. When we tried to increase the number to more than 12 we are not allowed to do.

Can you let us know does syncovery queue the jobs and wait till the jobs are cleared and run the next one or it just doesn't queue and skips any job after 12 jobs when ran simultaneously?

This is very much needed for us when we do deployments, please do let us know if there is a way to increase this number or it is something else altogether?

Thanks,
Sneha.

Hello,
theoretically all jobs will be run eventually, but it depends on the type of schedule. You can upgrade your license to run more than 12 jobs in parallel here:

Hi Can you elaborate more when you say "type of schedule". ?

Thanks,
Sneha.

For example it may behave differently if you schedule a job to run once per day or every 5 minutes, or real-time. Which kind of schedule are you using?

Hi,
Thanks for replying.

We have both scheduled jobs and also those which we run only when needed.
The priblem is with those we run manually only when needed. If those jobs are more than 12 in a row its skipping the next one (13th job) or two (14th job). Do you know the reason for this?

Thanks,
Sneha.

Apparently you can only launch 12 at a time in the background, unless you upgrade your license. I will check if this can be improved.
