Create or edit a Job Policy of type "TPO CPU Load Balancing"

From menu entry System>Job Policies, click on "Add new" or edit an existing job policy to open the Job Policies edition form.

•On the task type drop-down, select "Trigger TPO CPU load balancing", which will update the form.

•Give a name to the task.

•Specify whether the task is scheduled (select Yes) or for pre-execution (select No). If the task is scheduled, select a periodicity and a date (time in UTC).

•Link to the job policy, the TPO cluster(s) whose active TPOs will have to perform a CPU load balancing when the job policy is executed.

•Save or update the job policy.

Reset TPO CPU Load Balancing Data

The load distribution result is saved in the TSS in order to be restored when restarting the TPOs of a cluster. To erase the TPOs CPU load balancing data for a cluster:

•Edit the TPO cluster

•Navigate to the "TPO Places" tab

•Click on the "Reset load balancing data" button at the bottom of the form

Load Balancing - Delta:

The following setting defines the precision of the load balancing (the higher the value, the lower the precision, so a value of 0 will be most precise). For more information, please refer to the Yellow Pages.

Global	Load Balancing - Delta Key: application.setting.loadbalancing.delta Description: To do the load balancing, the average number of input streams per computing unit is first calculated. Next, the feature tries to get the number of input streams closer to the average, for each computing unit. When the number of input streams of a computing unit is between average - delta and average + delta, it is considered close enough. That means a smaller delta makes the balancing more precise, but also longer. Beware that a value that is too small will not make the process more precise anymore, but will make it take longer still. If you are unsure what value fits your situation the most, it is advised to leave the default value as is. Constraint: Must be positive or 0.
