Push Iterations

Enter the maximum number of resource combinations the system will consider when push planning a single operation. We suggest you leave this field set to 0, to allow the system to find the fastest combination of resources to complete the operation earliest. When this field is 0, the system checks ALL combinations of resources in every resource group the operation requires. However, if you are concerned about system performance, you can limit the system from checking all combinations by entering a maximum value.

Note: You should consider using this parameter only if you have operations that specify resource groups with large numbers of member resources, and you have considered the situation carefully. If you use a Push Iterations value that is too small, the planning function may not plan an order to be available as fast as it could have been available in reality.

Example: if an operation specifies 2 resource groups, and each resource group has 100 resource members, the planning function will check 10,000 combinations to find the fastest combination of resources. This process may slow system performance. If you specified 100 push iterations, the planning function would only check the first 100 resource combinations.

Default: 0
