We use quartz DB config for that.  We don't do any logic to make those 
decisions.  Maybe the quartz reference discusses it?  Yes, a job will run on 
a host.  Which host we don't really care about.  Is there affinity for a job? 
 I think there might be but im not sure.  Thanks, Chris

Chris,

Thanks. I thought I had read that it could be done somewhere, but I could not 
put my finger on the page. ( Thanks for the reference.)

I was expecting more setup than just "keep the same setup". :)  
I was expecting something more like "run this job on host=a, or host=b", and 
"run this job only on host=a" kind of stuff.


Based on your response, can I would assume that there is a "first come, first 
to checkout/start the job" kind of model at work?

        The quarts timer "roles over" on Host A for a job and that host .....

        Care to share a bit more details about how that works? ( Maybe a code 
ref to go read through? )

If you run on multiple hosts it tells you which one

Yes

Just run it on multiple nodes :)

https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Grouper+Daemon

"You can run the daemon on multiple machines and jobs will be spread among 
them all automatically.  Be sure to keep your loader configuration 
(grouper-loader.properties) the same on all machines."

Thanks
Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] Loader question

All,

The UI for the Loader logs has a column of "Host" for the log events for a 
loader job. Which lead me to a set of questions:

1) What use is the Host column for the Loader logs?
2) Does the Loader design support multiple "loader nodes" that "share the 
load" of doing the loads? ( If so, are there any docs on how to set that up?)
