p_manage_17 cycle size; number of cycles

• Article Type: General

Description:
I find (in the p_manage_17.cycles file) that the p_manage_17 cycles are huge: over 3 million records each.

I don't find any p_manage_17 entry in the $data_root/prof_library file.

Can this be specified?

Resolution:
p_manage_17 is reading z01 records rather than z00. There are usually 10 - 20 times as many z01's as z00's.

Unlike most of the other index jobs, the p_manage_17 does not use a prof_library setenv.

The number of cycles for p_manage_17 is always twice the number of processes: (number of processes) * 2.

Say there are 40,000,000 z01's:
If there are 5 processes, there will be 10 cycles of 40,000 records each.
If there are 9 processes*, there will be 18 cycles....

*In version 17-up, there can be up to 20 processes.
