Introduction
Users have a number of options to organize their scheduling clusters.
...
For information how to set up Agent Clusters and Subagent Clusters see JS7 - Management of Agent Clusters
Capabilities
Subagent Clusters offer a number of capabilities:
- A Subagent can be a member of any number of Subagent Clusters.
- A Subagent Cluster can include a single Subagent and it can include any number of Subagents.
- A Subagent Cluster defines fixed-priority or round-robin scheduling mode to switch between Subagents.
Unlimited Subagents per Cluster
Any number of Subagents can be added to a cluster.

One Subagent Cluster per Subagent
When adding a Subagent JOC Cockpit can be instructed to add a Subagent Cluster that holds the single Subagent.

Scheduling Modes
Subagents can be added for both fixed-priority and round-robin scheduling modes:

Strategies
Director Agent as Subagent Cluster Member
Users can add the Director Agent to their Subagent Clusters:
- The Primary and Secondary Director Agents each include a Subagent that can be used to execute jobs.
- The Director Subagent can be added to any Subagent Clusters.
- Users can decide not to use the Director Agent for job execution but for orchestration of Subagents only in order to guarantee the highest level of robustness.
Agent Clusters and Subagent Clusters
Users can apply different strategies to manage operational Agent Clusters and functional Subagent Clusters.
