Alteryx Designer Running at Low Priority

Hello,

 

I recently got Alteryx Server installed and running; and I am trying to run one big workflow not via the gallery but by using the Designer on the Server machine. I need to do this as I have to make some changes for now.

However, I see that the Designer is running at low priority, even though the Server environment itself has lot of RAM available. Because of this, it is taking too much time to complete the workflow. Can anyone help me to override this? Snapshot of the message below:

Hi @sagar_agarwal

 

In the System Settings for the server this box may have been ticked causing the server to run in this mode.

Hey Jordan,

 

Thanks for pointing that out - it is indeed checked on currently. But doesn't it mean running the Alteryx Engine of the Server/Gallery at lower priority & not the Designer?

Or am I confusing the two?

 

Edit: Also, is it fine if i uncheck it permanently? The server will be dedicated Alteryx Server. and nothing else will be run on it.

Hi @sagar_agarwal

 

You are indeed correct. My additional post didn't send. You will want to check here for the designer on the server.
