What is the role of "limit total job disk quota" because in our environment jobs are getting queued for some users until other users jobs are completed and do the increase of "user-level concurrent search job limit" will solve the issue ( currently it is 30 ) </P> Tue, 11 Jul 2017 22:44:27 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/how-to-set-the-values-for-the-concurrent-search-job-limit-for-a/m-p/303854#M91388 vadlamudi 2017-07-11T22:44:27Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/how-to-set-the-values-for-the-concurrent-search-job-limit-for-a/m-p/303855#M91389 <P>These values are stored under Settings &gt;&gt; Access Controls &gt;&gt; Roles.</P> <P>There are defaults, but you can override them for your roles. However, if you set the limits very large, it may not help. Each search requires the use of a CPU core while it is running. So it won't do anything helpful if you set the limit to a number that is larger than the number CPU cores that you have. </P> <P>And if you want to increase resources to improve performance - it is very likely that you don't want to increase the number of CPU cores on the search head - if you add more indexers, searches will run faster and there will be less resource contention.</P> Wed, 12 Jul 2017 01:33:04 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/how-to-set-the-values-for-the-concurrent-search-job-limit-for-a/m-p/303855#M91389 lguinn2 2017-07-12T01:33:04Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/how-to-set-the-values-for-the-concurrent-search-job-limit-for-a/m-p/303856#M91390 <P>Thank you for the reply.
