[Client]CPU

This parameter is by Plant SCADA Runtime Manager to determine which CPU(s) the client process is assigned to. The CPU parameter is configurable for every Plant SCADA process via the CPU Setup page in the Computer Setup Wizard (see CPU Configuration).

Note: When Plant SCADA is running in single process mode, this parameter is used to specify the CPU assignment for the Plant SCADA process.

If this parameter is modified while the Plant SCADA Runtime Manager is running, the changes will not take effect until every instance of Plant SCADA is restarted.

CPU numbers are specified in a comma separated list. CPU numbers need to be valid and a subset of the available CPUs on a computer. For example, if there are eight CPUs on a computer, a valid CPU range is 0 to 7.

Allowable Values:

A comma-separated list in the range 0 to 31 (inclusive), where 0 is the first CPU.

For example, "0, 1, 2" or "3, 4, 5".

If no value is entered, the process will run on all available CPUs.

Note: When a process is set to run on all available CPUs, be aware that performance issues may still occur when your CPU usage is less than 100%. You can detect these issues when your CPU usage for a process is fixed at 100 divided by the number of processors.

Default Value:

No value (the process will run on all CPUs).

Note: You cannot manually specify CPU assignments on a computer with more than 32 CPUs. Under these circumstances, the Setup Wizard will automatically set this parameter to no value (all CPUs). Any changes you make to this parameter will be overwritten.
