As an example (and everything below would be in one qbwrk.conf), let's say you need all machines to define proxy_account and proxy_password, you would then: | No Format |
|---|
[default]
proxy_account = render
proxy_password = cbda878cd5ad5dcdab8967dbc86bc786a857ada57bc # < - this is generated by qbhash |
Then let's say you want to define a worker path map, but it will be different based on the OS, you would then: | No Format |
|---|
[osx]
worker_path_map = {
"\\" : "/",
"X:/project" : "/Volumes/xsan/project",
"H:/" : "/home",
}
[winnt]
worker_path_map = {
"/Volumes/xsan/project" : "X:/project",
"/home" : "H:/",
"/" : "\\",
} |
Now let's say you want hosts01 - host05 to be in a group called "groupA" and a cluster called "/foo"; and host06 - host10 to be in a group called "groupB" and a cluster called "/bar", and then host11-15 need to be in group "groupB" and cluster "/bar" and define a worker_restriction of "/bar/+": | No Format |
|---|
[groupa_rule]
worker_groups = groupA
worker_clsuter = /foo
[groupb_rule]
worker_groups = groupB
worker_cluster = /bar
[host[01-05]] : groupa_rule
[host[06-10]] : groupb_rule
[host[11-15]] : groupb_rule
worker_restriction = /bar/+ |
Now let's say that host07 is special and needs to be a member of both groupB and nvidia, but not lose its worker_cluster. Just redefine it afterwards (the file is read top to bottom): | No Format |
|---|
[host07]
worker_groups = groupB,nvidia |
Here's the whole thing together: | No Format |
|---|
[default]
proxy_account = render
proxy_password = cbda878cd5ad5dcdab8967dbc86bc786a857ada57bc
[osx]
worker_path_map = {
"\\" : "/",
"X:/project" : "/Volumes/xsan/project",
"H:/" : "/home",
}
[winnt]
worker_path_map = {
"/Volumes/xsan/project" : "X:/project",
"/home" : "H:/",
"/" : "\\",
}
[groupa_rule]
worker_groups = groupA
worker_clsuter = /foo
[groupb_rule]
worker_groups = groupB
worker_cluster = /bar
[host[01-05]] : groupa_rule
[host[06-10]] : groupb_rule
[host[11-15]] : groupb_rule
worker_restriction = /bar/+
[host07]
worker_groups = groupB,nvidia |
To pull it all together, if, for example, host12 were a windows machine, it would get the following config: | No Format |
|---|
proxy_account = render # from default
proxy_password = cbda878cd5ad5dcdab8967dbc86bc786a857ada57bc # from default
worker_path_map = {
"/Volumes/xsan/project" : "X:/project",
"/home" : "H:/",
"/" : "\\",
} # from [winnt]
worker_groups = groupB # from [host12] ( [host[11-15]] ) which inherited from [groupb_rule]
worker_cluster = /bar # from [host12] ( [host[11-15]] ) which inherited from [groupb_rule]
worker_restriction = /bar/+ # from [host12] ( [host[11-15]] ) |
| Info |
|---|
- We never had to inherit from [osx] or [winnt], as those were already applied to all OSX and Windows machines before we even got into [host*] sections.
- There are no machines called "group*_rule" - those are just placeholders, if you will.
- You can do all of this through WranglerView on the supervisor (you must be running it on the supervisor for this to work). Simply multi-select workers on the worker layout, right-click > "Configure on supervisor", then change all the parameters you choose and click OK. This is somewhat less flexible, but many people prefer GUIs
