We have 2 nodes of type Background processing. We want to move our agents to QP so below are the changes that we are planning to make on Node Classification side
Moving 2 nodes to Stream Node type
Moving 2 nodes to Real-time Node type
Keeping 2 nodes to Background processing
Q1.) Since the QP will be executed on the BP node type of nodes do we need the Real-time Node type for Data flow execution or the same Background processing nodes will take care of the same?
Q2.) Having doubt on partitions created on nodes . Since we have 2 background processing nodes will there be 40 partitions , 20 on each node?
Q3.) What should we put on the no of threads options in QP if we have 2 nodes of Stream and BP type?
For making sure to get the queue processor running successfully inside the environment, just have a node that is getting mapped to the stream node type.
If any one stream node is running inside the environment, then the queue processor will be able to run without any issues.
Regarding Queue Processor Partitions
For each queue processor inside the system by default 20 partitions will be available.
Ex: If 2 stream node is avail inside the system, then under each node 10 requests will get processed in parallel threads.
Ex: If 4 stream node is avail inside the system, then under each node 5 requests will get processed in parallel threads.
Parallel thread creation under each node will be based on the thread count which you are providing in the queue-processor rule.
