Running Multi-threaded Processes

Many of the system background processes may be run multi-threaded. When submitting a background process on-line, you may also run a multi-threaded process or run a single thread of a multi-threaded process. The fields Thread Count and Thread Number on the batch submission page control the multi-threaded process requests:

• To run a multi-threaded process, indicate the number of threads in Thread Count and enter 0 in the Thread Number. In Oracle Utilities Customer Care and Billing, for example, to run the account debt monitor (ADM) with 10 threads, enter Thread Count = 10 and Thread Number = 0. This will execute all 10 threads of ADM.
• To run a single thread in a multi-threaded process, indicate the number of threads in Thread Count and indicate the Thread Number you would like to run. For example, to run only thread 1 out of 10 threads for the account debt monitor (ADM), enter Thread Count = 10 and Thread Number = 1. This will execute thread 1 out of 10 for ADM.
• To run a process as a single thread, enter Thread Count = 1 and Thread Number = 1. This will execute the background process single-threaded.
