The primary component in Qube Remote Control is the Supervisor. It represents the nerve center of the RMS, coordinating between the Workers and the clients, queuing and dispatching jobs, and monitoring the overall health of the render farm. So it is no surprise that the configuration of the Supervisor would be the primary topic. The majority of the Supervisor behavior can be configured, and this behavior has effects all throughout the system.
The Supervisor itself is configured by only two files: qb.conf and qb.lic. The qb.conf file is the main configuration file, and qb.lic file contains the license keys for the farm. There is also an optional qbwrk.conf on the Supervisor that is used to centrally configure the Workers.
You can modify the qb.conf or and qbwrk.conf from the WranglerView UI or by directly modifying the files with a text editor.
Once changes have been made to the Supervisor configuration, it must be made aware of configuration changes by restarting the Supervisor service. If you are modifying through WranglerView, it should automatically prompt the user to restart the Supervisor or perform the qbadmin command. The Administration menu in WranglerView can also be used to manually restart the Qube! Supervisor.
You can also perform these same actions manually outside of WranglerView – see "Common Actions" for details.
For manual changes to the Workers via qbwrk.conf you must run the "qbadmin worker –reconfigure" command.
