  • The Agent is developed for zero configuration:
    • An Agent is not configured for a specific Master. Instead the Agent serves requests from any Master and is addressed by Process Classes of a Master.
    • No Agent configuration is required.
  • Easy Deployment
    • Deploying the Agent to hundreds of servers is a task of minutes.
    • JobScheduler can be used to automate the deployment of Agents. Alternatively popular tools such as Puppet® can be applied.

Agent Clustering

  • A number of JobScheduler Agents can be configured in an Agent Cluster for redundancy and fail-over of Agents.
  • Fixed Priority Scheduling
    • JobScheduler Master will select the first available Agent for execution of jobs. 
    • If an Agent is not available then the next available Agent is selected from the Agent Cluster.
  • Round-Robin Scheduling
    • JobScheduler Master switches the Agent for each job execution. 
    • If an Agent is not available then the next available Agent is selected from the Agent Cluster.
