how many _mprshut.exe should be running

[pranita.avhad]

Suppose, I am using 5 Progress databases.
If the progress application is running.
In this case, how many _mprshut.exe should be running in background.

Looking forward for the help.

Thanks in advance.

Many.

Each BIW, AIW, APW, WDOG, promon and proshut instance for each database will show up as an _mprshut process.

Assuming that you are running an Enterprise DB license and that you have enabled after-imaging (you should always enable after-imaging on any database with data that you care about) then you would have a BIW, an AIW, at least one APW and a WDOG for each of your 5 databases. So you would have at least 20 _mprshut processes running.

Thanks a lot for ur reply and valuable solution.

I have observed the things,

1. In my server configuration, for each DB's the APW, AI writer and BI is running.

so total 15 _mprshut.exe's are running.

Please tell me wheather the same is applicable to _proapsrv.exe

App servers are quite different. The number needed depends on what your application is doing with them and how you have architected that application (stateful, state free, stateless etc...). There is no simple rule but I would expect to see quite a few running most of the time.
