Scaling and throttling export processing

When the Data Export Processing task runs, it spawns child tasks based on the following:

• The number of export chunks.

• The number of available task runners that you have configured.

IEE uses the lesser of these two numbers, minus 1 since the main task also performs export processing. If there is only one chunk, then all processing is done by the main task.

To prevent AMI Data Export from consuming resources on all of your servers, define a task runner type in the IEE Code Table Setup that runs only the AMI Data Export task; then create an Application Service under IEE Service Management that uses that task runner type.

To access the Task Runner Type code table, go to System Administration > System Admin > Code Table Setup and select Task Runner Type Table from the list. For more information, see Task runner type.

To create a service, go to System Administration > System Admin > Service Management. Select the server that hosts this application service, and click Add Service. For more information, see Adding or editing a service.
