  2. In the left pane, select IQ Servers > Multiplex Management > Logical Server Policies.
  3. Select the logical server policy from the right pane and either:

    • From the Administration Console menu bar, select Resource > Properties
    The Logical Server Policy Properties view appears.
  4. View or modify the properties.

    Area Description
    General

    Name – (Read-only) Name of the logical server policy.

    Options:
    • Allow Coordinator As Member – (Root policy only) – When ON (the default), the coordinator can be a member of any user-defined logical server. OFF prevents the coordinator from being a member of any user-defined logical servers.
    • (16.0 only) Login Redirection – When ON, enables login redirection for logical servers governed by specified login policy. When OFF (the default), disables login redirection.
    • (16.0 only) Temp Data in Shared Temp – When ON (the default), all temporary table data and eligible scratch data writes to the shared temporary store if it is not empty. (If the shared temporary store contains no read-write file, data instead writes to IQ_SYSTEM_TEMP.) When OFF, all temporary table data and scratch data writes to the local temporary store.
      If you change the value of Temp Data in Shared Temp, you must restart all servers that belong to this logical server. After the restart, each server that is part of the logical server begins putting temporary table data in the appropriate store.
    • (16.0 only) DQP Enabled – Specify DQP disabled, Enable DQP with shared temp (the default), or Enable DQP over the network.
      You can reset this option dynamically. Distributed query processing (DQP) over the network keeps data in memory in the temporary cache instead of in the IQ_SHARED_TEMP dbspace. The option that provides the best performance may vary by query, and depends on the performance of the network relative to the I/O system.
    • (16.0 only) Redirection Waiters Threshold – Defaults to 5. Positive integer value that specifies how many connections can queue before SAP Sybase IQ redirects a connection to this logical server to another server.
