During the R3load export or import process, you can dynamically increase the parallel process. The changes will not bring any halt to the running export or import process.
Go to the installation directory, example below location,
C:\Program Files\sapinst_instdir\NW740SR2\MSS\COPY\EXP\AS-ABAP\EXP
Open export_monitor_cmd.properties with notepad and change the jobNum value. This is example for export scenario.
server
dbType=MSS
exportDirs=G:\EXPORT\ABAP
installDir=C:\Program Files\sapinst_instdir\NW740SR2\MSS\COPY\EXP\AS-ABAP\EXP
orderBy=
r3loadExe=C:\Program Files\sapinst_instdir\NW740SR2\MSS\COPY\EXP\AS-ABAP\EXP\R3load.exe
tskFiles=yes
dataCodepage=4103
jobNum=8
monitorTimeout=30
loadArgs=-stop_on_error
trace=all
Note
You can improve import performance using the following formula:
Number of Parallel Export Jobs = 3 * (number of CPU cores). However, such a setting might negatively impact other applications running at the same time on the same host. To avoid impact, reduce the number of r3load jobs, for example by using the default value.
