Scheduling multiple QVW reloads

[mjharper]

I have around 100 qvw files that I want to schedule to reload each morning. If I schedule them all to reload at 05:00 will I get a load of failures or does QlikView queue them until a reload engine is available? (Max Concurrent Reloads currently set to 2.)

I realise I can chain them together by making the reload of one dependant on another, but I don't like the fact this is generating a dependency that isn't really required. If I go this route what happens if I need to remove one report? Would I have to remember which report was dependent on the report I'm removing?

Hi Matt

It will queue them, QMC runs 10 qvws per time if I am not mistaken. But I know it queues them

If you have the qlikview desktop installed/licensed on the server, you could run a morning batch file and bypass the Publisher all together:

"C:\Program files\Qlikview\QV.exe" /r "\\<server>\<drive>$\<location of .qvw>"

Maybe try 10 at a time at first and gradually increase. Maybe you could get to the 100 mark.

It will run as many concurrently as your "Max Concurrent Reloads".  The remainder will be queued "waiting for engine".  If a task does not get an engine in the proscribed timeout (default 45 mins) it will fail. To modify the wait-for-engine timeout, update the value for "QvbWaitTimeoutMinutes" in

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\Distribution Service\QVDistributionService.exe.config"
