Configuration

For both scenarios above, the same steps will be carried out:

Unzip the JobScheduler Universal Agent Batch Installer zip file.

XML files

Configuring XML files with a text editor is error-prone. Therefore we recommend that you download the XML Editor that can be used to manage the configuration files required for the Batch Installer. For details about the XML Editor see the Using the XML Editor chapter below.

  • After downloading the XML Editor, extract the contents of the zip file to a convenient folder (an installation routine is not required) and start the sos.xml.editor.exe program.
  • Open your yade_agent_batch_installer_settings.xml YADE configuration file, which is located in the config/batch_installer folder and assign the XSD schema http

titleHints
  • The  XML Editor is available for Windows.
  • YADE is an Open Source file transfer solution for FTP, SFTP, FTPS, WebDAV and other protocols. Concretely, it will be used here for transferring the following files from the JobScheduler Master to the Agent servers:
    • JobScheduler Universal Agent installation files: jobscheduler

    • _unix_universal_agent.1.11.0-SNAPSHOT.tar.gz

...

  1. The only parameter to adjust in that case is installation_definition_file, where it is set the path to the XML file that contains all parameters for the batch installation.

  2. The rest of the parameters should be let as defined per default.

    • Start script for an Agent instance: jobscheduler_agent_<port>.sh
    • Installation script: jobscheduler_universal_agent_install.sh
  • For more information about YADE, see the YADE product site.

  • AgentBatchInstaller job: adjust the parameter values for the AgentBatchInstaller job in your JobScheduler Master.
    • Adjust the installation_definition_file job parameter with the path that points to the Batch Installer configuration file.
