Resource-Based Allocation

After the user enables Resource-Based-Round-Robin allocation of jobs, Adeptia Connect checks for the available resources on every node of the cluster before allocating a job in round-robin method. In a normal round-robin method, system allocates the job to the next node in sequence without checking for availability of the resources on that node.

After enabling this feature, if resources are not available on that node, it will move to the next node without allocating the job (after logging a notification in kernel logs file), and check the next node in the sequence for allocating the job.

To enable resource-based allocation in clustering:

1. Click Account > Settings.
2. Expand the Server Node Settings in the left panel.
3. Select the server node.

4. Click Edit.

5. Expand Load Management > Cluster and Queue Processor Configuration.

6. In the Value field for cluster.load.balance.policy property, enter Resource-Based-Round-Robin.
   
   
   
   
7. Click Save.
8. Click Reload Configuration.
   
   In case there is no resource available in any of the node of the cluster, then system will wait for the time set in abpm.node.resourceavailability.check.waiting.period property. Users can view the notification of unsuccessful allocation of the job to a node in the kernel logs file.
   
   
9. To set the threshold and waiting time, expand System Throttling.
