Configuring Additional Publisher Queues
To configure additional numbered processing queues, follow the steps below:
1. Create the required new numbered processing queues using the Windchill Queue Management utility.
a. Click New Queue. The New Queue dialog box opens.
b. Next to Name, enter the name of the new queue.
c. Next to Type, select Process from the drop down menu.
d. Under Enabled, select Yes.
e. Next to Execution Host, type Default.

If multiple Background Method Servers are configured, set the queue group to the defined WVS group.
|
f. Next to Failure Retries, enter the number.
g. Next to Suspend Duration, enter the number.
h. Select OK. A new numbered queue is created.
WVS starts to use this queue right away.
By default, Windchill is set up to delete all information for completed publish jobs that are processed in any queues other than PublisherQueue1 and PublisherQueue2.
If you want to remove the completed queue entries, you are done.
If you want to keep the WVS Job Details logging information for additional queues in any queue set, continue on to Step 2.
2. Configure Windchill to retain completed WVS Job details.
a. For each additional processing queue, use the xconfmanager command to add the required removeCompleted properties to the wt.properties file.
For example, to prevent deletion of completed jobs from the first queue in the Publisher Queue Set “PROE”:
xconfmanager -t codebase/properties -s
"wt.queue.removeCompleted.PublisherQueuePROE1=false"
b. Propagate the changes by executing the xconfmanager -p command.
3. Restart the Windchill Method Servers in order to reload the updated wvs.properties settings.
For more information on the properties that configure retaining or removing completed queue entries, refer to Tech Support knowledge base article
