Reserving AMP Worker Tasks? Don’t let the Parameters Confuse You! - comment by b2s

Hi Carrie,

 If you are using TASM, then the expedited status is automatically given to a workload that has a tactical enforcement priority

We have two versions of Teradata ie Teradata 12 and Teradata 14.
1)In Teradata 14, we do have WD's that have tactical enforcement priority. So far I have come across WorkTypeMax08 having 6 as Max. So, theoretically this means the actual AWT reserved is 14(6+6+2)..is this right?
 I'm aware of the limit of 20 AWT's for expedited AWT's, however, will this apply to the automatically reserved AWT's because of tactical enforcement priority?
2)In Teradata 12, even though we have WD's that have tactical enforcement priority, I'm unable to see the WorkTypeMax08 go beyond 0 ? Am I missing something?
 

 Bottom line, setting the limit on MsgWorkEight AWTs anywhere between 30 and 60 is probably reasonable. If you're not sure how to set it, make it the same as the MsgWorkNew limit, at 50.

As you said earlier, Max Expeditied AWT's can be 20(9+9+2), what is the use of having even 30?
If indeed there is a need for throttling, shouldn't Max Expedited AWTs be less than 9?
