Description How to control where agents run


This database can control whre agents run i a clustered environment.

In agent settings you can specify which server the agent runs on, but if server is down ? What to do.

I have made a database that can control this.

Here is how it works.

Put the database on the server, and create a document for each agent you want to control.
in here you set the agent, and which server you would like it to run on.

The external database lookup is used to find the agent controler database in lib.dmc.agent. Feel free to change it to how you want to connect to the database.

Then simply set the agent properties so that the agents run on all servers, and make sure that the following code is in your agent:

Use “lib.dmc.agent”

Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim agent As NotesAgent
Set agent = session.Currentagent
If determineRunServer(agent.Name, session.Currentdatabase.Server) Then
‘Start running agent – write en agentlog or other to specify where you run, or whatever you like
Else
‘Exit agent
Exit Sub
End If

The when the agent runs, it will ask the agent controler database if it should run or not.

There is also a function to change the “run” server for all the agents that run on one server.

Its not a 100 % finished, but it works, and i hope somebody can get some use of it.



Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

GitHub can be used as source control repository for OpenNTF projects. In this case the Issues from GitHub are used instead of the Defects from OpenNTF.

Contact ip-manager@openntf if you want to have a GitHub project created in the OpenNTF space.
