Run QV.EXE only on certain CPUs

[Anonymous]

Hi Guys

is it possible to let the QV.EXE run only on certain CPU's?

Let's say I'm executing the QV.EXE on a server with 16 CPU's but I only want QV.EXE to use CPU 1 - 8.

Is it possible to "tell" QV.EXE to use onle those CPU's?

Thank you guys

Kind Regards

Hello Maciek,

I do know that's possible using QlikView Server (Enterprise Management Console, System, Setup, QlikView Servers, Performance tab). There is an option passed on to the command "cmd.exe" in Windows (Vista and 7, not in XP and previous versions, likely 2003 Server and above as well)

c:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /wait /affinity 1 "c:\Program Files (x86)\QlikView\qv.exe"

that may help you, although since this is an operating system feature, I'd take this with care. This discussion may be helpful too. Make sure your operating system supports this.

Hope that helps
