- 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.
