Nomad allows hourly variable work rates to be set throughout the day enabling organizations to use different maximum percentage of available bandwidth during the working day and in the evenings. Intra-day work rates are set on the client using the MaxWorkRatesregistry value. If the intra-day work rate is less than that defined on the command-line, it will override the command-line value. If the intra-day work rate is higher than that defined on command-line, the command-line value is used in preference.

Note

Work rates only apply to transfers from a DP not to P2P transfers within a LAN.

Work rate override arguments

The intra-day work rates can be overridden using the --wro and --wr Nomad command-line arguments.

If these two arguments are combined, the value for the --wr switch is used in preference to the intra-day work rate set in the registry
If only the --wro argument is used, any intra-day value is overridden with a default maximum of 80%
If using intra-day work rates and the --wr argument only, the lower of the two values is used.
