The default thread count for a MID Server is 25. This means that the MID Server can run up to 25 worker threads simultaneously to execute the jobs assigned to it by the ServiceNow instance. The worker threads are divided into different thread pools based on the priority of the jobs. The MID Server can also adjust the thread count dynamically based on the system resources and the workload. The thread count can be configured by changing the MID Server parameters in the ServiceNow instance12.

Question # 35
Which of the following best describes what may also be required when increasing the max number of threads for a MID Server?
Options:
A.
increase the amount of disk space on the MID Server host
B.
updating the acl rules for the CMDB tables in ServiceNow
C.
increasing the memory allocated to the MID Server app.
When increasing the maximum number of threads for a MID Server in ServiceNow Discovery, it's often necessary to also increase the memory allocated to the MID Server application. This is because more threads can result in higher memory usage as each thread may consume resources while performing discovery tasks. Increasing disk space, updating ACL rules for CMDB tables, or increasing the MID Server max payload size are not directly related to the number of threads used by a MID Server. References = ServiceNow Discovery documentation, especially sections discussing MID Server configuration and performance tuning.
