Common Options for Agent Clusters

In an Agent Cluster users find the following roles:

  • Primary Director Agent: first Director Agent that orchestrates Subagents. By default this is the active instance in a Director Agent Cluster.
  • Secondary Director Agent: second Director Agent that orchestrates Subagents. By default this is the standby instance in a Director Agent Cluster.
  • Subagent: a worker node in an Agent Cluster that executes jobs.

The following matrix shows applicable and required options for roles in an Agent Cluster:
