    Hi , 

     

    By default a NES  will accept 200 agents connections  . 

    See also :

    Increase Maximum Capacity of Agents for Execution Server  

     

    The exact number of agents that can connect to a NES depends greatly on many factors, including:
    • Number of executions performed in parallel
    • The complexity of those executions
    • The size of files transferred during the process executions
    As such it is very difficult to accurately predict the limit. As a rule of thumb we normally advise that one NES can handle a maximum of 1000 agents concurrently and no more than 400 agents should be active at the same time.

     

    Network and Server resources also play a role , Execution Servers should be placed electronically close to agent machines where ever possible.

     

    Regards,

    Dirk
