Hi,

I have scheduled multiple batch jobs , it is starting and completion successully with out any issues. But the job not starting at scheduled time which taking some delay time to start. For example

1. I have increased 5 BGD process instance profile - we have scheduled 5 jobs at 7.00PM but job starting at 7.00.20( <b>20 sec delay</b>)

2. 10 BGD process - scheduled 10 jobs 8.00.00PM but starting at 8.00.35 ( <b>35 seconds delay</b>)

3. 15 BGD process - scheduled 10 jobs 9.00.00PM but starting at 9.00.50 ( <b>50 seconds delay</b>)

Also for complete taking long time if i increase process.

Please suggest why this is happening.

Thanks,

Chimsik

Part of the issue may be because the server only has a limited number of background processes running. If you try to start more jobs at the same time than you have background processes, then some jobs will have to wait for a free process before they can start.
