TuneJobs
Distributed tuning job count
Type: | int |
---|---|
Default value: | 0 |
Minimum value: | 0 |
Maximum value: | MAXINT |
Enables distributed parallel tuning, which can significantly increase
the performance of the tuning tool. A value of n
causes the
tuning tool to distribute tuning work among n
parallel jobs.
These jobs are distributed among a set of machines. Use the
WorkerPool parameter to
provide a list of available distributed worker machines.
Note that distributed tuning is most effective when the worker machines have similar performance. Distributed tuning doesn't attempt to normalize performance by server, so it can incorrectly attribute a boost in performance to a parameter change when the associated setting is tried on a worker that is significantly faster than the others.
For examples of how to query or modify parameter values from our different APIs, refer to our Parameter Examples.
