How limit the number of CPU Cores used by Qlikview

[Cascader]

Hi,

I found this article talking about setting the limit for number of cores for Qliksense (https://support.qlik.com/articles/000042135 ), but how to do it for Qlikview?

I'm not sure but I assume it's quite similar whereby the settings.ini may not contain this setting by default else only if it's manually set or there were an appropriate change within the QMC.

Just check it by doing a comparison between the settings.ini before and after the QMC adjustments by:

QMC/System/Setup/Qlikview Servers/YourServer/Performance/CPU Affinity

just enabling/disabling the cores by clicking on boxes and confirming it by clicking on apply at the bottom.

@Ahmedg,

@marcus_sommer is correct in that this setting can be manually set in QlikView Desktop and QlikView Server via the Settings.ini file. Refer to the following Qlik KB articles for details on how to edit the Settings.ini file: 

• How to change the settings.ini in QlikView Desktop
• How to Modify the QlikView Server Settings.ini file 

Follow article How to limit the number of CPU cores used by Qlik Sense in the Settings.ini file for what value to set:  2^(number of cores)-1. For example, 10 cores would be 2^10 - 1, or 1023.
