Configuring Publication Settings in Services Settings

Modify publication settings to specify constraints on your report publishing jobs.

To configure your publication settings:

Note: The default settings should be the optimal settings for most environments. Change them only if your environment requires different settings.

  1. Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
  2. In the Configurations drop-down list, select your configuration.
  3. In the sidebar select Services/Publication/Settings.
  4. To configure General Data:
    1. In the Page Size field, enter the maximum number of rows of general data a job can process. This applies to each business object that falls under the general category; general data is not time-distributed (spread), not hierarchical, and not in a blob. When using this setting, each business object processes separately.

      The default value is 32.

      Enter a value between 1 and 8192.

    2. In the Max Job Count field, enter the number of processes used for this service on your server.

      The default value is 1.

      Enter a value between 1 and 20.

  5. To configure TimeDistributed:
    1. In the Page Size field, enter the maximum number of rows of time-distributed (spread) data that a job can process. This applies to each business object that falls under the time-distributed category. When using this setting, each business object processes separately.

      The default value is 16.

      Enter a value between 1 and 8192.

    2. In the Max Job Count field, enter the number of processes used for this service on your server.

      The default value is 1.

      Enter a value between 1 and 20.

  6. To configure Blob Data:
    1. In the Page Size field, enter the maximum number of rows of blob data that a job can process. This applies to each business object that falls under the blob category. When using this setting, each business object processes separately.

      The default value is 25.

      Enter a value between 1 and 8192.

    2. In the Max Job Count field, enter the number of processes used for this service on your server.

      The default value is 1.

      Enter a value between 1 and 20.

  7. To configure Log:
    1. In the Security Level drop-down menu, select the level of information contained in the log file for all publication services. The ranges are inclusive. For example, select debug to log all messages; select info to log details about what runs, exceptions, and warnings; select warning to log both warning and error level messages.

      The default value is info.

      Select info, debug, warning, or error.

    2. In the Global Service Log File Cap (Success) field, enter the number of logs to retain for successful global publication services. This will retain a log for each global service. If set to 5, the last 5 successful service runs will be retained for each global service.

      The default value is 5.

      Enter a value between 1 and 25.

    3. In the Global Service Log File Cap (Fail) field, enter the number of logs to retain for failed global publication services. This will retain a log for each global service. If set to 5, the last 5 failed service runs will be retained for each global service.

      Enter a value between 1 and 25.

    5. In the Project Service Log File Cap (Fail) field, enter the number of logs to retain for failed Publish Project jobs. This will retain a log for each project service. If set to 5, the last 5 failed service runs will be retained, per project.
