You should tell your boss that multi- threaded building queue's is the
way to go. And if you set it up in a different subsystem (other than
QBATCH), very unlikely any user would ever get anything into this queue.
Some tips from my current client site where we are averaging 2 hour full
package builds on the AS/400...
1. Deployment server and AS/400 on same switch
2. Deployment server NIC set to highest speed full duplex (not
auto-negotiate)
3. Set block size on CO ODBC's on DEPLOYMENT SERVER ONLY to 512K
4. Create multi- threaded package build queue on AS/400 (we're currently
running 3 threads) in subsystem other than QBATCH
5. NO virus protection on deployment server during build
6. Make sure logging is off on deployment server whilst building
There are some other things we're doing here on the switch itself, but
I'm sure that is very hardware and switch usage dependant, so I don't
think they would apply to a wide number of other folks.
