Hi,
I'm creating tasks using automation scripts, and my DataMiner setup is running as a cluster of agents. What happens if one of the agents goes down? I'm asking because, when I create a task via script, it’s done by sending a message to a specific agent.
Is it possible to make this process redundant without having full one-to-one DataMiner redundancy? Or is there a way for the cluster to automatically assign the task to an available agent if the targeted one is down?
Some clarification on this topic would be great—maybe you could also point me to the relevant documentation?
Best regards,
Hi David,
When you create a scheduled task in a DMA (via Cube or automation script), a Windows scheduled task will be created on the server hosting that DMA. As far as I know, this scheduled task is not synchronized across the cluster.
When the DMA is down, the scheduled task created on that DMA will not be available in the Scheduler app.
Can you elaborate a bit more your use case?
Regards,
