Post 24x7 job priority Reply with quote

When I define a job as having either low or high priority I expect the
started program to have the same priority or the default priority.

What I see happening in reality is that the started program has
windows prority high when the job priority is set to either high or low.

If the job priority is set to normal then the priority of the started
program also is normal.

This bug is present in 24x7 3.4.5 but also in 3.4.26

how can I start the program with windows priority low?

I believe it is a bug causing OS processes invoked from "low" priority jobs with "high" priority. I can suggest the following workaround:

Download SetPriority Utility here and save in 24x7 directory
http://www.softtreetech.com/24x7/extras/setpriority.exe

For example, you if you want to run notepad.exe as a low priority process, define a JAL script job with the following code
Dim PID, number
Run "notepad.exe", "", PID
Dim command, string
ConcatEx "SetPriority ", PID, " 1", command
Run command, "", PID

: If the job priority is set to normal then the priority of the started
: program also is normal.
