Maximal Number of Nodes

Type

Integer

Range

{0 .. 2147483647}

Default

2147483647

This option sets the maximum number of nodes solved before the algorithm terminates without reaching optimality. When this option is set to 0, CPLEX completes processing at the root; that is, it creates cuts and applies heuristics at the root. When this option is set to 1, it allows branching from the root; that is, nodes are created but not solved.
