Hello.

I’m trying to rise priority for gcomm thread but the server can start only with default value “gcomm.thread\_prio=other:0”. I get error “Invalid argument” if I try to change priority for the “other” scheduler or “Operation not permitted” I i try to change scheduler. My goal is to set the highest priority possible.

Thanks.
