Hi All,

Is there any problem in running multiple background jobs simultaneously ? how much backgrounds jobs can we put at a time ?

my requirement is to put some background jobs which will take 2-3 hours each in production Server.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

There is no problem in running multiple background jobs .

You can divide them in multiple background JOBs provided they don't have inter-dependencies in such case time take to complete same task will be lesser than the dialog work process.

Also You can track background processing activity in your SAP System with both list-oriented and graphical monitors.

list-oriented monitor - Transaction SM37

graphical monitors - Transaction RZ01

For easier scheduling and management, you can run related programs as u201Cjob stepsu201C within a single background processing job, allowing a single background job to accomplish a complex task that consists of multiple processing steps.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

you can go with the background Jobs depending on the No fo Backgroung processes you have in you system.but keep in mind thet one or 2 background process are reserved for high priority jobs.

you can go witht he operation mode as specified earlier.

Hello,

There is no problem in running multiple background jobs .

Try to use the following approach

1) run background jobs during low system activity

2) Create operation mode via transaction RZ04 and put more number of BTC work processes during the low system activity and then run the multiple background jobs simultaneously

Not at all...

 how much backgrounds jobs can we put at a time ?

How many background processes you have?... in any case the rest will queue waiting for an available processes.

my requirement is to put some background jobs which will take 2-3 hours each in production Server

Try to schedule them to run during off-peak hours...
