How to Configure a Rim Node to Function Only as a Scheduler Node in Qlik Sense

[jpjust]

All,

I have the following services on one of the RIM node.

I want this node only to be scheduler node,  in order to do that which services should be disabled?

Thanks

Hi,

So to make a rim node as a reload node. You just enable the scheduler services ? How do I test a reload task on this specific node?

Hello @AdrianOh ,

You mean only for testing? if yes, just stop the services on the other node.

Cheers,

Albert

I never thought of this. Do you mean stop / disable  the scheduler services on the QMC on the other node? Will give it a try .

Is there way also to force some task to run on the new node? Like a load balance rules or some sort ?

Thanks

Hello @AdrianOh ,

Exactly, to disable/stop the scheduler service. Just got that idea if needs to be tested, I would expect that to work, but I haven't be able to test it myself yet so kindly let me know the outcome.

As of today, I am afraid tasks cannot be force to be executed on a particular node. I kindly suggest to vote on Ideation if there is an existing idea on this, otherwise kindly create a new one and share it here, so we can vote on it too.

Cheers,

Albert

So how does the load balance work for schedule task? Automatically pick up? Round robin?
