Add Subagent Cluster

To add a Subagent Cluster the Create Subagent Cluster button can be used.

This brings up the following popup window:

  • In the left panel the list of Subagents is available and can be dragged & dropped to the middle panel.
  • The middle panel holds a drop area to which a Subagent can be dropped.

With the first Subagent being added to the cluster the middle panel offers additional drag & drop areas:

  • The next Subagent can be dropped to the area above the existing Subagent to specify its role as the first Subagent used with the fixed-priority scheduling mode.
    • In this mode the first Subagent is used and only if it becomes unavailable then the next Subagent will be used.
  • The next Subagent can be dropped to the area below the existing Subagent to specify its roles as the next Subagent used with the fixed-priority scheduling mode.
    • In this mode the next Subagent is used only if the first Subagent becomes unavailable.
  • The next Subagent can be dropped to the area right to the existing Subagent to specify use of the round-robin scheduling mode.
    • In this mode each next task is executed with the next Subagent.

If the next Subagent is added below the existing Subagent then a cluster with fixed-priority scheduling mode is created:
