Manage the DFWFPROC Process Services :: DataFlux® Data Management Server 2.7: Administrator's Guide

Overview

The DFWFPROC process runs real-time process services, batch jobs, and profile jobs. Process services are handled independently of batch and profile jobs, by a pooler. The DataFlux Data Management Server requests a new process from the pooler. The server then sends the process the service name and input parameters so that the process can load and run the service.

The default directories for process services, batch jobs, and profile jobs are located in install-path/var.

Unload Idle DFWFPROC Processes

You can unload idle DFWFPROC processes for real-time process services, batch jobs, and profile jobs using the SOAP command UnloadProcesses, as described in Apply SOAP Commands and WSDL Options. To unload processes manually, follow these steps:

Open DataFlux Data Management Studio and open the Data Management Servers riser.
Locate the action menu and select Unload Idle Loaded Processes.

Reference for DFWFPROC Configuration Options

Use the following configuration options to manage your DFWSVC processes. These options are specified in install-path/etc/dmserver.cfg.

Configuration Option	Description
DMSERVER/SOAP/PROC_SVC/MAX_NUM	Specifies the maximum number of real-time process services that are allowed to run simultaneously. The default value is 10. If a new service request exceeds the limit, then an error message is displayed and the new service is not executed.
DMSERVER/JOBS_ROOT_PATH	Specifies the location of the root directory for the job and service subdirectories. The default object root directory is `install-path\var`. The subdirectories for jobs and services are: `data services`, `process services`, and `batch jobs`.
