Hi
Our environment has 4 physical nodes. I changed configuration file to make 6 vertual nodes. The job is aborting saying the following message.
But when I chaged the configuration file from 6 nodes to 4 nodes the job is running successfully with 4 processes.
could any body please suggest me how do I increase the processes from 4 to 6 or more.
thanks

Increasing number of processes

Hi
Our platform is HP-UX B.11.11 U 9000/800. I am changing the configuration file through Datastage manager. I am providing the configuration file name to the job through $APT_CONFIG_FILE. I am expecting the job should take the new configuration file in which there are 6 virtual nodes and should create 6 processes. COuld you explain how the configuration file will change the number of processes and suggest me how do we increase the number of processes.
thanks

Nivas,
increasing the APT_CONFIG from 4 to 6 doesn't meant that now you have 6 processes in total where you only had 4 before; it means that each stage in your job now executes with 6 instead of 4 jobs. So if you have 20 stages in your job this APT_CONFIG change has increased the number of process running for the job by 40. It is not unkown for complex jobs with many nodes to generate over 1000 pids! And if several jobs run at the same time under the same userid the normal limits are very quickly reached.
