Running Workflows

The event viewer allows you to view the progress of executing a workflow; see View Event Log for information. Among other information, you can see how long operations took.

Oracle Data Miner uses Oracle Scheduler to schedule workflow execution. For an overview of Oracle Scheduler, see the Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.

Model builds can be very resource-intensive. The number of parallel builds is controlled by the WF_RUN parameter in the Oracle Miner Server. WF_RUN specifies the maximum number of model builds across all workflows running in the server. The default value of WF_RUN is 4, so with the default settings, 4 models can build at the same time among all of the workflows running. The maximum value of WF_RUN is 999. If you increase WF_RUN, do it gradually.

Workflows can appear to be running even though the network connection is lost. For more information, see Network Connection Interruption.
