Using resource groups programmatically

Using resource groups : Using resource groups programmatically

Developers can write applications using resource groups with Actuate Information Delivery API (IDAPI). Using IDAPI, you can:

Send a job directly to a resource group, bypassing the priority settings for asynchronous jobs and the Encyclopedia volume settings for synchronous jobs.

Change the resource group configuration. For example, you can enable or disable resource group membership or change the number of Factory processes in a resource group.

Using IDAPI to direct jobs to a specific resource group bypasses the cluster’s load-balancing mechanisms. As a result, applications that use IDAPI to run designs can adversely affect the performance of the cluster.
