If you are running services and P6 on the same server, you should keep the defaults. If you have leveling work that needs to be done immediately, you should set the Interval low (for example, 10s) and the Concurrent Threads high (for example, 20). Remember that if the server is actively doing leveling work, all users will experience delays in the application.
To set your leveler settings:
- Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
- In the Configurations drop-down list, select your configuration.
- In the sidebar select Services/Job Services.
- Select Leveler.
- In the Interval field, enter the amount of time the Web Leveler will wait before leveling the next available job (in 1d1h1m1s format, specifying only numbers without letters indicates milliseconds).
The default value is 10s.
Enter a value between 1s and 24d20h31m23s647.
- In the Concurrent Threads field, enter the number of processes (active levelers) used for leveling on this server. A value of 0 indicates this server will not perform leveling.
The default value is 2.
Enter a value between 0 and 20.
- In the Active Mode field, select true if you want jobs processed continuously until all jobs are leveled. Select false if you want each job processed according to the Leveling Interval.
- In the Interval field, enter the amount of time the Web Leveler will wait before leveling the next available job (in 1d1h1m1s format, specifying only numbers without letters indicates milliseconds).
