Sybase ETL 4.9 supports parallel project execution to improve performance especially when you use a single ETL server to schedule multiple projects. In earlier versions, you could only run one project per job per grid engine, which caused under utilization of available resources. Now, you can execute multiple ETL projects concurrently on a single or multiple grid engines. Multiple ETL users can also execute projects concurrently on the same remote grid engine.
You must edit the Default.ini file in
the etc subdirectory of the installation folder,
to specify the maximum number of projects you want to execute at
one time. By default, the maximum number of projects that can be
executed at a time is 10. However, if you set the maximum project
value (MAXPROJECTS
) to 0
or a negative number, there is no limit to the number of projects
that can be concurrently executed on the grid engine.
