SET CALCPARALLEL

Enables parallel calculation in place of the default serial calculation.

Syntax

SET CALCPARALLEL n;

n A required parameter, an integer from 1-4, specifying the number of threads to be made available for parallel calculation. The default value specifies serial calculation: no parallel calculation takes place. Values 1-4 specifies parallel calculation with 1-4 threads. Values of 0 specify serial calculation. Values less than 0 return an error. Values greater than 4 are interpreted as 4.

Note: Values less than 0 treated differently than they are by the CALCPARALLEL configuration file setting.

Description

SET CALCPARALLEL enables Analytic Services to use parallel calculation. Analytic Services analyzes each pass of a calculation to determine whether parallel calculation is possible. If it is not, Analytic Services uses serial calculation even if CALCPARALLEL is set.

Notes

Example

SET CALCPARALLEL 3;
enables up to three threads to be used to perform calculation tasks at the same time.
