Use a collector to specify the maximum number of jobs the system
allows a particular server to run simultaneously, and set the
default maximum via a system setting.
The system limits how many processes it tries to run on
any one server. If the server has a _MAXJOBS property, the system limits the
number of processes to the value of _MAXJOBS. If the server does not have
a _MAXJOBS property, the system uses the default value, which comes from the
Default
_MAXJOBS system setting. To change the default value, select and set a different value.
Note: Other programs
can run on the server. The system only limits the number of processes that
the Management Console runs on the server.
To give a server a
non-default value, create a collector that includes a _MAXJOBS variable, and
then assign the collector to the server. When you use the special name _MAXJOBS
for a variable, the system interprets its value as the maximum number of processes
for the server. To set this up:
