VI Speed issue

[Blorf]

Hello.

Using the following dos .bat code to auto activate a VI job works extremely well because it means I can automate the processess with out humans being trained on VI or what not.

However.... When I run a VI job this way, it operates at about 10% the speed it would if I went to the VI menu and manually activated it. Why? And is there a way around this?

Thanks!

The speed depends somewhat on the file type used and the location of the file. Is the file on your work station or the server?

 

[Blorf]

Server.

The same file type and location run via above bat file, and from the vi menu produces different results.

The file type is comma delimited.

Thanks!

Here is one thing to consider. If you are running MAS200 and you run the VI job from a desk top the difference is this. With 200 the processing is done on the server but your VI job running from the desk top is actually running it in MAS90, that being file server mode. This should account for the speed difference.

Ahhh I see.

Invoking as I am using the .bat forces the desk top to interpert rather than the server. At least now I can try to come up with a solution.

Thanks!
