Is anyone aware of a way to link running QDS tasks to the active QVB.exe PIDs on the server? Support have no idea how to do this, and I just don't understand how this is not possible!? I'm relatively new to QV, so hopefully I'm just missing something really obvious (this seems like such a basic requirement for any enterprise deployment).
The QDS currently logs log the process ID at the END of the task log (which is a bit useless):

I have created an "idea" for this enhancement: http://community.qlik.com/ideas/2193
But hopefully someone can tell me a way of doing this with a config tweak...
Thanks
Unfortunately not. I was told by support to "create an idea". No movement yet as far as I know. Please vote for it if you think it would be useful.

There unfortunately does not appear to be much appetite to address issues like this and enhance the product. The standard line from support is to "create an Idea", where it then languishes. It's a real shame, as this seems like such a trivial thing to address (i.e. moving a trace statement in the code).
If you find a way of doing it, please let me know. For now, we are resorting to tracking QDS task start times back to the time processes were launched, which is less than ideal.

Hi,
Did you find a way to map the QVB to a PID??
Thanks,

Yup, the support seems to be lethargic.
I am also working on a way to map it using the start time. Will update you if I find a perfect way.
(Voted up your idea)

Thanks.
We are just manually using process explorer to map QVB process start times to the task log start times for the moment. It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing.
Graeme,
Do you have any update on this? I am looking for same thing here and any help would be appreciated.
I am trying something like to read a text in the logs where the processID find and then do the substring.
Thanks

I believe this issue has been rectified, at least as of 11.2 SR2. I can now see the PID's being logged to the start of the QDS logs.

Thanks Graeme.
Yes. I do see the process id in task logs. But trying to display it in my audit report.
Thanks
Chandra
