2.10. PLMTABLE2: Loading takes too long

If the PLMTABLE2 contains a high number of data records, the set threshold value [Threshold] for the total number of LinkB data records is exceeded.[26]

Increasing the value, however, leads to extremely long loading times.

With V12.12, you can restrict the display of PLMTABLE2 data records using separate configuration entries for the additional tables (you may need to set the key yourself):

  • defaultlimit: Sets the limit for all additional tables together. If the key does not exist, the PARTlinkManager default is used (current behavior).

  • limitN: Sets an explicit limit for the linked additional table and overwrites the default. Values <= 0 do not set a limit.

    Example: limit1 corresponds to t1=PLMTABLE2, limit2 corresponds to t2=CNSSEQ, etc.
