Introduction

Excerpt

The Resources View provides access to JobScheduler objects that are not directly bound to specific Jobs Chains or Orders. These are Agent Clusters, Locks and Process Classes and Schedules.

The Resources View also provides access to the Schedule Editor.

The Individual Sub-Views

Agent Clusters

Agent Clusters are one or more JobScheduler Agents that are accessed by a common Process Class. The Process Class defines the address or addresses - i.e. the URIs - of the individual Agents as well as the maximum number of tasks that the Cluster may execute at any one time.

Process Classes are also JobScheduler resources and are shown in the JOC Cockpit Resources / Process Classes view (see below). Each Process Class specifying one or more Universal Agents is considered as a separate Agent Cluster. (Conversely, Process Classes not including agent address information are not considered as Agent Clusters.)

...

The next screenshot shows the Resources / Agent Clusters view with three Agent Clusters on a common host and one of the Universal Agents offline. The information presented in this view is purely informational (i.e. non-interactive) and is updated in near real-time. 

Permissions

Permissions for viewing both Agent Clusters and for viewing Process Classes are required to view the Resources / Agent Clusters view in the JOC Cockpit.

See the JOC Cockpit - Authentication and Authorization articles for more information about Permissions.

Further information

See the JobScheduler Universal Agent - Agent Cluster article for more detailed information about Agent Clusters.

Substituting and Run-times

Schedules and Run-times are mutually exclusive.

Substituting and modifying Schedules

Schedules can be substituted in the JOC Cockpit by either:

  • Selecting the Schedule or Schedules to be substituted from the Schedules tab list view and then opening the Substitute modal window by clicking the Substitute button at the top right of the view. This will open a list of all the schedules in the live folder of the JobScheduler Master as shown in the next screenshot.
  • Using the Additional Options menu for an individual Schedule and selecting Add Schedule. The Additional Options menu is reached by clicking the ellipsis symbol as shown in the screenshot below

Object Level Schedule Substitution

Schedules, like all JobScheduler objects, are saved as files within the JobScheduler Master's live folder. Scheduler substitutions can also be configured at this level, either using JOE - JobScheduler Object Editor or by editing the substitute schedule object file using a text editor. The JOC Cockpit can take account of substitution at this level. The following screenshot shows a folder in the Resources / Schedules view with three schedules:

...

Each of these Schedules can be further substituted as described above.

Further information

See the Schedules article for more detailed information about Schedules.
