Help: my process priority is decreased to zero by OS?

Hi, I see this is a group about Linux, but it seems its the most appropriate forum to post my problem.
My world is composed of Unixware7 and Oracle 8.1.5 and some processes of my owner application.
Everything is OK after my application started, but several hours later, the prioriy of process 'ora_pmon_sid' is decreased to 0(I found out using ps -ef|grep ora_), while all other processes seems alright and my application runs on.
To my best knowledge, OS will decrease a process's priority if only it occupied too many resources. I have no idea what it is doing now, anyone help me?
No warnings, no errors, the %idle of CPU remains 50%.

Hi
On linux, priority goes from -20 (highest priority) to 20 (lower priority) so a priority of 0 is not bad ;)
Most UNIX do this, so first check the priority system under your UNIX, and get the highest/lower value...
Anyway if CPU is 50% the machine is working fine, is not hanged.....
A10!
PS: How many simultaneous connections to the database and machine did you have?

    You should look at the Windows Event Log for errors / reasons.
    Probably (this is a guess), you ran out of space for the Paging file.

  • Help for Process Priority (STOP buttons)

    I , I have a problem with my program.
    I make the acquisition with a device connected to GPIB.
    I want to have my main program with 2 For Loop and a stop button which stop the program and the device.
    The problem is that, if the program is doing an acquisition and is in a For loop, I can press stop button and nothing happens until the end of the for loop.
    I can stop with main stop red button but my device is not Off.
    I tried an event structure but it don’t works.
    The goal is to have a stop process priority to the acquisition process.
    I attached my structure of program. I only need to keep the 2 For Loop.
    Event structure and while Loop can be removed.
    I use LV2012 sp1f5 but I can upgrade to LV2014 if really necessary
    thanks in advance for your help.
    Solved!

    Rigth click on the border of the loop you want to leave and add the conditional terminal.
    Place the Stop button inside the loop.

  • Display array contents & prompt user for process priority

    Hi, i need help developing an interface.
    I have an array which contains a complete list of models available at my company. Now, i want to create an interface where the contents are displayed and user is able enter numbers to select the models he/she wants to run and the process priority.
    eg: The array contains models A to Z. The user is able to select models D, A, G and B and instruct the program to process them at the same sequence.
    How do i acheive this in Labview?
    I'm very poor at designing interface, can someone point me to any literature and tutorials in developing frontpanel interface in Labview?
    Thank you.

    Hey, I have done something similar to this in the past.  The way I did it was by using a listbox.  I had buttons that the user would select to tell me what to do and how to modify the listbox contents.  For example, in your case, I would have an Edit button.  When the user selects the Model and hits Edit, I would pop up a screen asking him which process he would like to assign to the model.  Then I would check for errors and if none existed, I would update the listbox contents with the new information.
    Let me know if this helps or if I should provide more explantation.
    Thanks!

  • Err:Help- Parellel processing of delivery generation  is active*

    Hi
    I got this while creating a delivery in VL10. 
    "Wait for next parellel processing , wait for all 1 parell processing session or return to the list by selecting cancel "
    in another  pop box, Help- Parellel processing of delivery generation  is active
    If any one familiar with this error , pls help me to understand what could be the reason and what I need to do for fixing it pls .....
    Thanks In Advance

    Jaya,
    On your User Role Tab, try setting the Max number of tasks to zero.  Depending on your config, this field may not be locked.  Otherwise, try finding a Role/Scenario combination which presets this field to zero.
    Try setting 'List of blocked documents' to blank.
    Try setting 'list type' to '2'
    Try deselecting 'Selected items' checkbox.
    This is not goof-proof, VL10 sometimes likes to fire off in parallel on its own.  There are a host of OSS notes about this transaction, some of which talk about parallel processing.  Check [OSS 399068|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/399068] and related notes.
    Also, check for any jobs running program RVV50R10S (this is VL10) in the background.  If these are running parallel tasks, you may have to wait for them to finish before you can begin new parallel tasks.

  • How can I change the default process priority for plugin-container?

    I'm on Windows XP and using Firefox 16.0.2.
    While browsing the web I often listen to pandora, but the music playback is always choppy or jerky. It especially occurs when scrolling pages up/down on other tabs. I saw on another question - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/930496 - that one solution is to change the plugin-container.exe priority to AboveNormal. I've done this several times and it works really well!!
    I also tried changing the firefox.exe priority up and down, but this is ineffective (choppy playback problem still occurs). It is very much related to the plugin-container priority.
    Please could you provide an about:config option to set the default process priority for the plugin-container. It would make a big difference for those users who have the problem. Thanks!

    thanks
    i also found solution for my poblem:
    i have this code:
    jMenuItem jMnItEdit;
    jMnItEdit.setAccelerator( KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0));
    also i had ActionListener bounded to this JMenuItem
    but Ialso had in form JTable and it always grabbed my VK_ENTER event and that menu item wasn't working at all
    but when i overrode that input map for JTable and set
    tableInputMap.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, false), "none");
    everything started to work perfectly,
    thanks a lot

  • Can I setup process priority on WebLogic?

    Hi,
    I try to find out if WebLogic provides any process priority features ?
    Using JMS message property field is one way. Are there any other

  • Keeping processing priority of Elements out of defaults

    Dear Experts,
    Can I keep my own custom processing priority of elements which will obviously be out of defaults. Will it have any negative affect?
    Regards,
    Muhammad Noman Shafique

    Hi Muhammad,
    You can have your own processing priority for the elements, as long as it is between the DEFAULT_HIGH_PRIORITY and DEFAULT_LOW_PRIORITY
    Consider an example -
    Bonus for each employee is based on a % of Basic Salary.
    So your Bonus element's priority should be greater than Basic salary. Say 2005 for Bonus and 2000 from Basic Salary.
    If some other element's processing is based on Bonus, its priority should be greater than 2005 but less than the default High Priority.
    System will still allow you to have the priority outside the HIGH/LOW values, but the balances would not be populated in the correct order for payroll processing.
    If there is a requirement to use an element to circumvent the balance, then you can have the priority outside the High/Low values.
    Cheers,

  • Using NI LabVIEW PID.vi to control 4 quadrant dc power supply in MOKE application; but the Process Variable won't achieving Zero Set Point, oscillating either side of zero instead !! Please help me to resolve this issue

    Please see the image also where the PID values can be seen.
    Thank You

    Hi Aruvi,
    PID controls are made for linear systems. When your system acts nonlinear you need to use a different control algorithm - or adapt your PID to use different PID parameters depending on system workpoint!
    In the PID toolkit you will find a GainSchedule function that helps you in this matter…

  • ** Please help urgently  ** Budget upload field with leading zeros

    We need to load a characteristic that has leading zeros.  For example 0000350.  When saving down to CSV, we lose the leading zeros (0000) so that only 350 is loaded into BW.  Saving the codes as 'text' in excel does not seem to help.
    We cannot therefore see the name for any of these codes when refreshing the workbook in BW.
    Could some please urgently tell us the correct method to save the file for loading into the BW infopackage, with all zeros intact ?
    Regards, Frederick

    Hi Frederick,
    Just some additional thoughts,
    assuming field A1 in Ecel contains 350 and you want to create a string with 8 digits, you could use formula '=text(A1;"00000000")' in an empty column and copy it back to column A. Then 00000350 should be provided in A1. This can be saved in a normal .csv file and be opened with a text editor (e.g. notepad) in order to check content.
    If you don't want to manipulate Excel data, transformation to a field with leading zeros can be easily be processed with a routine in transfer rules.

  • How to change process priority after its already started

    This question is also active in the Tiger forum... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1491812
    I am posting here in case it is somehow different for Leopard.
    How can I change the priority of a program (say Handbrake) to be lower?
    I have tried "sudo renice 20 <handbrake PID>" but Activity Monitor doesn't seem to show any
    change in behaviour and the Nice CPU display is still zero percent.
    How can an app's priority be lowered and how can one verify that it worked?

    I saw this post in another thread
    poster: P Gierke
    thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6662466
    nice and renice still alter a processes scheduling priority. You can see for yourself using the pridist.d dtrace script ( type sudo pridist.d ). This script samples at 1 kHz and spits out a scheduling priority distribution graph broken down by process.
    As an example, kick off a cpu intensive command that does nothing, like:
    dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null
    renice it to -10, and run the dtrace script.
    Then, renice to 10 and run the script again.
    You should see a major difference in the priority distribution for dd in each case. In my case, scheduling priorities moved from 0-15 (niced at 10) to 80-90 (niced at -10).
    As a side note, nice values that are negative will increase the scheduling priority of a process, making them not so 'nice' to other processes.

    Hi Sayaf
    It sounds like you need to use "Array Subset.vi" to split the 2000000 into 250000 element blocks.
    Set the index on Array Subset to 0 and then increment by 250000 after processing and displaying each block.

    Yes, as rightly said you need to run the previous delta before updating new records in the latest request. If possible de-schedule the chains for a while, delete the old deltas (assuming you are using flexible updates?) and try to repeat the loads manually & proceed to activate & schedule once the delta has finished processing. If you still think this is an issue related to idocs processing, you can do the re-processing, provided they do not create fresh batch of idocs in the source system. You can re-process the idocs both inbound & out bound using reports like RBDAGAIN (But again, use extreme caution on these!). Please refer the #scn wiki on http://goo.gl/njVLS for more information on the idocs. For reprocessing please check this http://goo.gl/8aAcz. Thanks.

  • Urgent help for processing XML stream read from a JAR file

    Hi, everyone,
         Urgently need your help!
         I am reading an XML config file from a jar file. It can print out the result well when I use the following code:

    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
    String line;
    while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(line); // It works fine here, which means that the inputstream is correct
    // process the XML stream I read from above
    NodeIterator ni = processXPath("//grid/gridinfo", is);
    Below is the processXPath() function I have written:
    public static NodeIterator processXPath(String xpath, InputStream byteStream) throws Exception {
    // Set up a DOM tree to query.
    InputSource in = new InputSource(byteStream);
    DocumentBuilderFactory dfactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

    System.out.println("Querying DOM using " + xpath);
    NodeIterator ni = XPathAPI.selectNodeIterator(doc, xpath);
    return ni;

    org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The root element is required in a well-formed document.This often means that the parser can't find the document. You think it should be able to find the document because your test code could. However if your test code was not in the same package as your real (failing) code, your test is no good because getResourceAsStream("conf/config.xml") is looking for that file name relative to the package of the class that contains that line of code.
    If your test code wasn't in any package, put a slash before the filename and see if that works.
