[U2] Chap Up, Chap Down, Chap chap chap the chapper
Does anyone know what exactly the Chap Up and Chap Down do, as far as the underlying system settings? Can I see how Chap is currently *set* on my process or some other process? Does the setting of Chap appears somewhere, that I can view, either in Universe, or in Windows (or Unix) ? Can you Chap down multiple times and will this actually do something? If I Chap down on my process, not as admin, can I then Chap up on my process and still not need to be admin? These are burning questions and the kitchen's on fire. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

As Symeon says, nice is the unix equivalent, I'm not sure what the Windows equivalent is. So whatever the underlying OS thingy is, you'll find your implementation of CHAP is similar to that. If the OS won't let you up the priority, then CHAP won't. A lot of Pr1mos commands were in INFORMATION, and from there made their way into U2.

Chap down a user would make them miss slots in the execution queue freeing it up for other users. It was a Primos option, I have never tried it outside of Primos and don't know if it actually works or was there for compatibility reasons.

Task Manager and add Base Priority column...see if that changes...after you do your thing. May do nothing if Rocket hasn't actually hook in the required hooks into UV. Plus a lot of the times you will need to be a Local Admin to change priority higher (if it works at all). In some cases like UNIX - mortal users can't even change their priority at all... up or down (in any meaningful way)... All of this is robbing Peter to pay Mary...what goes around...comes back to bite you if you're not careful. Sometimes it worth not mucking around with dangerous stuff like this. Tis far better invest more time to tune/optimise your U2 app or DB first - fiddle with Windows task scheduling priorities LAST. :) Use at your own considerable risk ;-) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms685100(v=vs.85).aspx -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Wjhonson Sent: Tuesday, 16 October 2012 5:41 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Chap Up, Chap Down, Chap chap chap the chapper Does anyone know what exactly the Chap Up and Chap Down do, as far as the underlying system settings?
