Only using 1 instance

When I try to setup my 2.66 Dual-Core Mac Pro up for either QuickCluster or Managed I can never get more than 1 instance to work inside compressor. I know I should be able to use up to 4, or even 2 instances. No matter how I setup qmaster up in the system preferences I still get the same results. I'm using the latest versions of everything that come with FCS2. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I noticed in the document "DistributedProcessingSetup.pdf" that should be on your computer after installing FCP, COmpressor etc, this paragraph:
{quote}Making the Most of Multi-processor Computers
If any of the service nodes you are administering have multiple processors, you
may want to adjust the number of instances of processing services. By default, the
Apple Qmaster system will create one instance for each processor. For process-intensive
work, having many instances may increase speed and efficiency, depending on the
processing application. (Consult the documentation that came with the application
to see if using each processor individually is ideal.)
Note: This feature is available only for Shake (with Apple Qmaster), Alias Maya, and
other UNIX command-line programs. It is not available for Compressor processing.
{quote}
I actually interpret this so, that no matter how many cores your mac has, for compressor jobs, it will only be possible to utilize one core per host computer when working in quick clusters. Is that correct? I have heard this mentioned in other posts here, over in the FCP forums.

  • How do you use only one plugin in Logic for multiple guitar tracks? I want to only use one instance of Pod Farm and run all my guitar tracks through that one instance.

    I want to be able to use only one instance of Pod Farm for my guitars, and have all of my guitar tracks run through it while I'm recording.

    What he said. Or here is a similar approach with a picture.
    1. Press the SEND button on every stereo (or mono) guitar track you want to send through the effect. Then select a free bus.
    2. Make sure you turn up the amount of send (in db). Holding alt while leftclicking on this circle sets the send level to 0 db wich is good.
    3. Open the mixer (Cmd+2). Please see that I here have turned the output off from the stereo guitar track. That way the only output will be the BUS, in your case the AmpTrack bus where all your guitars will pass through. If you want both the original guitar sound AND the Ampfarm effect then just set all outputs on your guitar tracks to Stereo Out, like the AmpF Bus track is set in my picture.
    4. Insert your AmpFarm plugin here. I don´t have that plug so I inserted Waves Renes Axe for demo purpose.
    Adjust the volume/effect of every guitartrack by turning the circle input shown as 2. in my picture.
    I now see that you mentioned Pod Farm, not AmpFarm. But I guess it´s the same trick.
    Have fun.

  • How to restrict only one instance of web service running at a time

    Hi All,
    Have a requirement to ensure that only one instance of java web service is active at any point of time.
    Using Application Server 10.1.3.4. Not the soa suite.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply..
    I have a java web service that pulls up some files produced periodically from remote machine and uploads them to some doc mgmt system and then update the database that what files are uplaoded successfully so that during next run it will ignore those files.
    so, if my web service executes second time before completion of first run. It would pick files that were already processed by first run since the first run might have not updated the databse yet.

  • Getting Error :- Only one instance of COBRAS Export can be running at a time

    Hi All,
    I was checking the Briefcase Mode help file and it mentions for Unity Conection
    that COBRAS will run multiple instances of itself – if you schedule multiple backups to fire up at the same time they will all run at the same time.
    However if I schedule multiple backups to fire at the same time then I get the error :- "Only one instance of COBRAS Export can be running at a time".
    This also happens if the COBRAS windows is left open and the scheduled backup starts in the background.
    http://www.ciscounitytools.com/Applications/General/COBRAS/Help/COBRAS_Briefcase/COBRAS_Briefcase.htm#_Toc276653845
    I am not sure if I am making a mistake in understanding the statement :- "COBRAS will run multiple instances of itself – if you schedule multiple backups to fire up at the same time" or do we need to add any switch like lot of other application need like /m etc in the field of the scheduled backups as I see as /silent switch for process to run in background automatically but none for multiple instances.
    I am attaching the screen shots of the errors I got when
    A.) I scheduled 2 backups to run at the same time and the COBRAS application window was open "COBRASExportCUC7.exe" was running  and no backup took place and got errors for both the scheduled backups.
    And
    B.) I scheduled 2 backups to run at the same time and the COBRAS application window was closed off and "COBRASExportCUC7.exe" was not running and one of the scheduled backups started to work and the other one gave error and didn't work
    Unity Connection in use :- Version 8.0.3.20000-18
    Cobras Export :- Version 1.0 Build 76
    Please Suggest.

    (E-Mail :- [email protected])

    Yeah, I’m of two minds on that – on the one hand it’s bad style to have a scheduled application popping dialog boxes (especially if you’re running as an account you don’t log in as regularly) – one the other hand I did have some sites go a while not noticing backups were failing (due to a UNC not flying any longer after a server reconfig) – folks can be bad about checking log files or the event log for issues.  A pop up would pretty much guarantee they’d notice on next login at any rate.
    I think I may stitch in email notifications in COBRAS Export in the same way they’re in the User Data Dump so failures of scheduled backups would be noticed right away (big, bright email in your box saying “failed!” would do it). 
    Either way, I’ll update the help and make sure it fails quietly for now when I update some other items on the site middle of next week.
    Thanks for the report.

  • Instead of creating multiple Instances I want to create only one Instance.

    Hi Everyone
    Good morning, How are you.
    I have a requirement to transfer files from one location to another location, I am able to do this successfully using FTP Adapters.
    I have some Issues please help any one.
    1) When I deployed my process it is creating one instance for one file transfer, Suppose If I have 50 files in my Get
    directory, After deploy the process 50 instances are creating and 50 Email generating saying files are not tranfered successfully.
    Instead of creating 50 Instances I want to create only one Instance.
    2) When files are not transferd it will fire error mail saying that not success (I want to display all file names(not tranfered files) in my mail , i.e whatever files are not tranfered, need to diplay in mail).
    3) And I am not able to transfer 0 size files, But in BPEL Console Instance is creating for 0 size file also and I am getting Email for success... and In put directory 0 size file is not showing. (Instance is creating and Success Email coming but file is not exists in Put directory)
    Please help me.

  • Allowing only ONE instance of a PDF to be open

    I'm trying to work out a new system for proofreading and commenting in our business using the Comment and Markup tools in Acrobat 8 Professional. I'd like to allow multiple users on a network to interact and markup a PDF easily. I'd like to make it so that one of two things can happen:
    a) Only one instance of a PDF can be opened at once on the same network. That is to say, if a user on one computer opens a PDF, another user on the network on a different computer cannot open that same PDF at all, until the first user has closed it. Also, I'm not sure if the functionality for this would be implemented in Acrobat or the operating system (Mac OS X 10.6, to be precise).
    b) Multiple users can open a PDF simultaneously, and markups and comments from all users are somehow saved.
    I'm sure it's more of a possibility for a) to happen, but perhaps I'm wrong. Anyway, I hope there is a solution out there! Thanks for all your help!

    George,
    Thank you for your helpful reply. It does appear that Shared Reviews is capable of providing our business exactly what we need in this regard. I have found that Acrobat 8 does support Shared Reviews, but it only does so with Network Folder locations and WebDAV folders as locations for comment servers. I know how to get to the process to set up Shared Reviews, but not how to designate or set up a folder as a comment server using Network Folders or WebDAV. Unless you just so happen to know about that process as well, I will post a new thread, since the problem of finding a solution has been solved, but the new problem of implementing it has risen.
    Although using Acrobat X Pro to share PDFs and collaborate automatically using Acrobat.com sounds mighty tempting...

  • PAR iView: Only one instance need to be opened by a user in a portal sessio

    Hi All,
      Please  let us know how to enforce only one instance of PAR iView is opened at a given time for a user.
    Regards,
    Gangadharayya.
    For Eg: let us say We have created PAR iview <b>A</b>. Once user <b>U</b> logs in to portal and opens A by clcking on iView link(Let us say that it opens in New Window).
            If U clicks once again on A iView link now , it is opening in one more new window.
           How to stop this scenario i.e. when user tries to open A once again, it should clsoe previous window or SOMETHING LIKE THAT

    Hi,
    How do you link to IView ? If you link with html like
    <a href="http://www.sap.com" target="_blank">SAP</a>
    try to use a target parameter
    <a href="http://www.sap.com" target="sap">SAP</a>
    If you link in this way,
    First time user clicks link,
    It opens new window
    If user clicks the link second time it just refreshes previous opened window.

  • SQL Cluster with FQDN only (no instance names)

    Is it possible to setup a SQL failover cluster with multiple instances but basically be named the "default instance".
    Right now I have three instances: AAA, BBB, and CCC. With failover clusters you associate each SQL instance with its own Drive, its own cluster name, etc. So right now this is how you connect:
    aaa.db.domain.com\AAA
    bbb.db.domain.com\BBB
    ccc.db.domain.com\CCC
    Is there a way that you can make it where people can connect by not providing an instance name? Because there is always only one instance per virtual server / fqdn:
    aaa.db.domain.com
    bbb.db.domain.com
    ccc.db.domain.com
    I hope I explained well enough. Thanks in advance!

    So Azure is not using a regular SQL server? I figured they were just using SQL 2014 or such because they offer Azure services for on-premisis now in your own datacenter.
    SQL Azure is definitely not the same as an on-premises SQL Server.

  • Can i use instance variables in page flow controller with out restriction?

    I am using instance variable in pageflow controller.
    1) Will it give any problem if concurrent users are accessing that controller class?
    2) How many controller objects will be created if multiple users (Say 10 users) accessing same controller class?
    Thanks.

    1) Will it give any problem if concurrent users are accessing that controller class? Pageflows are pere user session, different users wont cause it problems. however a single user can cause problems by using open new tab on a link etc(or back button or refresh on browser, problems with using state in a stateless protocol) . A bigger problem is that since a pageflow is indirect in session, using private variables in pageflow increases your session footprint and in a cluster , if replicated, your network trafiic as well. Using state also causes problem in HTTP , a stateless protocol,. Highly not recommended (unless you have no other choice)
    2) How many controller objects will be created if multiple users (Say 10 users) accessing same controller class? 10. assuming the portlet is used once only. If you use the same portlet in multiple pages , then you have that many.

  • Best way to have only one  instance of an object in web application.

    Hello,
    I defined a class that provides services to my web application: subscribes user, check if user already subscrubed etc. The objects don't need to save any session information. So it is like a Stateless Session Bean (from what I've read about Session beans).
    The webapp is small and I don't want to use EJBs.
    What would be the best way to have one instance of the above class in my webapp ?
    Would making the class static be a good method ? Using a factory ?
    Is there a way to put in web.xml something that asks the container to instantiate an object that is not a servlet and place it in Application scope, so that I cann retrieve it whenever required in my app ?
    Other suggestions ?
    Thank you,
    Vlad.

    Hi
    The best way to have only one instance is use the singleton pattern. The idea is : the class has a private
    contructor, a public static method that returns an instance of this object and a static member that is false if not any instance and true if there si an instance.
    To obtain one instance you can do some like
    MyObject ob=MyObject.getIntance();
    this method inspect the static member and returns null if true. If false set to true and return the object
    via the private constructor.

    Hope this helps

  • Global Interactive activity link to be displayed only at instance end

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where link in right hand side dropdown at instance level should be shown only when instance is completed. For this I am using one global interactive activity with 'has instance access' option checked and also 'read only' option checked. It is visible when instance is completed as well as when alive. I dont want the later part. Could anyone advice?
    Regards,
    Yasmin.

    Yasmin,
    You need to persist your instance variables by inserting them into the database table. And then pull your compleled instances based a known parameter (let say a defined instance id that can be an oracle or sql row id).
    Does this make sense to you?
    Thanks

  • Compressor only uses 30% of CPU : (

    I was not able to find any previous and recent discussions about this, but my version of Compressor 4.1 only uses, at most, 30% of CPU on my Mac Pro 2013.
    Any ideas as to why Compressor would use 30% only, whereas Handbrake maxes out at 100%?
    Graham

    Hi Graham, from your Compressor.app V4.1 "Active" pane image, these batch jobs are all queued as expected. What is not clear is if they are utilising SEGMENTING or if the TRANSCODING is taking advantage of that cool AMD FIREPRO D300 you have in that new MAC PRO!
    I believe you need to review and maybe deploy some or all of these actions in compressor.app V4.1:
    make sure JOB SEGMENTING is enabled for each of the batch JOBs in the BATCH WINDOW.
    note that most APPLE codecs support it, others may not.
    I've not used the new MACPRO 2013, it may be that if compressor.app is directing the batch jobs to the the FIREPRO D300 GPU, then SEGMENTING may not be supported at this stage - A GUESS.. anyone else know?
    if JOB SEGMENTING is greyed out or unselectable (tick), then select the VIDEO tab and enable "mutipass" and see if that automatically sets on JOB SEGMENTING.. maybe not.
    define a CLUSTER (single or multiple nodes) to get the transcoder to muster enough (sufficient) compressord subtasks to utilise your mac.
    Rather than duplicating this infomation for the nth time, , there's loads of info on these forums and I'd direct you to the Compressor.app V4.1 Users Guide on page 101+.".. (manuals.apple.com... d/l the .PDF)
    enable "ADDITIONAL INSTANCES" on this cluster to have more compressord subtasks running. this will provide concurrent (not parallel) transcoding of not only the job segments bit segments of other jobs too!
    Use distributed processing - Transcode batches using other computers.. only if you have too.
    just check any unneeded FRAME CONTROL setting in the Apple Default transcode settings (Inspector pane).. use the LEAST one until you are satisfied with your results.
    Monitoring Tools: Try these...
    Share Monitor.app ->> /Applications/Compressor.app/Contents/PlugIns/Compressor/CompressorKit.bundle/C ontents/EmbeddedApps/Share Monitor.app
    drop it in the dock for easy reference
    Network Encoder Monitor: +E in compressor.app
    Using the SHARE MONITOR.app or the "Active" pane, for each BATCH JOB, EXPAND the disclosure triangles to review if JOB SEGMENTING is processing rather than one serialised job.
    I'm curious (and quite eager) how you go with your the new macpro 2013 , compressor.app V4.1 with the AMD Firepro D300 and job segmenting.
    Please post you results for others (and myself) to see!

  • How to create a timer function by only using Threads

    I have used Timer & Timer Task but since they r only available for JDK1.3 and i need this to work on 1.2 also can any one tell me if i can create the same function using Threads.

    i had to do the same (heres roughly what i used...)
    interface TimerTask{
    public void timeout();
    class Timer extends Thread{
    private int delay;
    private TimerTask user;
    Timer(int delay,TimerTask user){
      this.delay=delay;
      this.user=user;
    public void run(){
      try{
       Thread.sleep(delay);            //*
      catch(InteruptedException IE){};
      user.timeout();                  //*
    }as you can see, very rough, but the basics
    refinements could be to add some flags to alter its behaviour..
    like, a loop if you want recuring events
    the commented lines might be rearranged if you dont want it to generate an event just because there is some shut down going on
    as it is an instance of a class could only use 1 Timer, to change this TimerTask.timeout() could be changed to TimerTask.timeout(Timer) so you could determine which Timer had triggered
