Other configuration

The following configuration options may also be useful in determining how to manage auto-creation of Top Movers.

Enabling calculation

In the Data Collector settings, the Top Movers setting must be enabled in order for Top Movers to be calculated at all.

  • See "Settings" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.

Performance

In the Data Collector settings, the Top Movers - Number of Threads used for calculations setting determines the number of threads that are used by the Data Collector to compute Top Mover calculations.

  • By default, this setting is set to 4.
  • You can increase the number of threads, which improves the speed of the Data Collector that is run for a set of Top Mover calculations.
  • However, using more threads consumes extra system resources, which may affect system performance.
  • This setting is applied to both hourly and daily Top Mover calculation runs.

See "Discover Settings" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.

Scheduling

As needed, you can configure the time of day on the 24-hour clock when daily Top Mover calculations run. Set the value for the Top Movers - Time for Daily Calculation setting in Data Collector settings.

  • By default, this time is scheduled for 4:30 in the morning according to the Discover system time zone.
  • See "Settings" in the Unica Discover Administration Manual.
  • For more information about the system time zone, see "Configuring the System Timezone" in the Unica Discover Configuration Manual.
