Configuring priorities for the VCS jobs
Windchill Visualization allows the administrator to configure job priority using WVS property. Priority can be controlled with a combination of job type and source of job. Use the following WVS property:
publish.publishqueue.priorities.<jobtype>.<jobsource>=<H, M or L>
For example,
Following queues are used for Windchill Visualization Services for VCS Publishing:
publish.publishqueue.priorities.1.1 = H
For EPMDocument type, with user action to create new representation, use high priority
publish.publishqueue.priorities.1.3 = L
For EPMDocument type, job created by publishing scheduler, use low priority.
publish.publishqueue.priorities.0.0=L
Create a default priority for any type and any source, use low priority.
Refer below tables listing the supported job type and the associated numbers.
