Description:
No matter what number of processes you set in the GUI services menu for p-manage-32, the system starts only one process.

When the job is run from the command line, the number of processes started is correct.

Resolution:
The number of processes for p_manage_32 was increased with v17 rep_ver 8421, but the program which builds the cycles for p_manage_32 is not set up to handle single digits.

In submitting p_manage_02 from the GUI Services (or the command line), you must include the leading zero for any value less than 10. Thus,

1 process would be specified as "01";
8 processes, as "08";
etc.

When you include the leading zero, the number is interpreted correctly.

You may want to change the default value in the GUI submission screen as a reminder that the leading zero is required. To do so, copy the $aleph_root/pc_b_eng/p-manage-32.xml file to $alephe_root/pc_b_eng/p-manage-32.xml and set the <default> line (in the $alephe_root/pc_b_eng/p-manage-32.xml) for F03 from "1" to "01".

Change this line:

> <default>1</default>
to:
> <default>01</default>

The default line in the distributed p-manage-32.xml will be changed as shown above.
