l The "Expected Remote Merge Engine" and "Expected Remote Weaver Engine" in Merge
Engine Scheduling and Weaver Engine Scheduling respectively, on the Master, should
each equal the total number of engines in all the slaves combined.
l For example, the Expected Remote Merge Engine on the Master should equal the
total of "Local Engines Launched" for each slave.
l
If the number of expected remote engines is lower than the actual number,
performance will not be optimal.
l
If the number of expected remote engines is higher than the actual number, jobs
may fail and not complete.
l Cleanup Service requires special configuration on Clustering setups:
l Cleanup service should not run simultaneously on all machines (staggered
cleanup). Doing so may cause jobs not to be processed since all servers are busy.
l Only the machine where the MySQL Server product is installed should attempt to
cleanup database items. Essentially server that do not have MySQL should only run
Orphan File Cleanup.
Server Extension Scheduling Preferences
The Server Extension Scheduling Preferences define the PlanetPress Connect Server
connection settings.
l
Location of the master server: Enter the location and port of the main PlanetPress
Connect Server module in the hostname:port format. For example, 192.168.100.123:9340
or connect-master:9340.
l
Username: Enter the username expected by the PlanetPress Connect Server.
l
Password: Enter the password expected by the PlanetPress Connect Server for the
selected username.
l
Note that Maximum records in a small job and Minimum records in a large job are not
used in Server Extensions. All server scheduling is handled by the Master.
