Issue/Introduction

Is there way to increase the number of RBM scripts to run on an OPMS simultaneously? It looks like there are 6 running by default. Is that the max? 

Environment

Current ASM release

Resolution

Six is the default setting, but it can be changed. The procedure to increase the number of RBM Workers - on the OPMS server

1) edit the file /etc/default/asm-smartpop-rbtm, and increase the value for number of workers

2) run dpkg-reconfigure asm-smartpop-rbtm to implement the changes

 

Monitor the OPMS closely after making these changes, as increasing the number of workers will increase resource (memory, CPU, and disk) usage.
