General

JobScheduler can execute distributed jobs on different servers. Example JobChain contains 3 jobs i.e. TaskB1, TaskB2, TaskB3. User want to configure that TaskB1 runs on the server ServerA ( localhost) , TaskB2 runs in server ServerB(Windows) and TaskB3 ServerC(Linux). JobScheduler can execute jobs on remote JobScheduler instance, JobScheduler Agents or over SSH. In this example JobScheduler will execute jobs on remote JobScheduler instances using process class. JobScheduler process_class is like a connection configuration where remote JobScheduler's host name and port number is defined. Once process_class is defined Job's can be configured to use process_class assigned to remote JobScheduler as target. JobScheduler will excute task/jobs on remote server and remote server/remote JobScheduler will report back status and logs to local JobScheduler
