After you have installed the Scheduler Server Application, you must configure it by editing the config.xml file. The Scheduler Server Application needs to know the Cumulus Server to connect to and the user account to be employed for the connection. If you employ multiple instances, a unique name is required for each one of it. The details of the configuration vary depending on the operating system. On all systems, use an UTF-8 compatible editor for editing the configuration file.
NOTE: Make sure the user you employ for the connection to the Cumulus Server has sufficient permissions for all functions necessary to fulfill the tasks. In any case, the Cumulus Administrator has all permissions that could be required.
Configuring under Windows
Register the service using InstallCumulusScheduler.bat, and edit the config.xml file, to be found in the installation folder of the Scheduler Server Application. You must specify
• the Cumulus Server the application should connect to [IP address or name of the computer running the Cumulus Server],
• the technical user that should be used when connecting to the Cumulus Server,
• the password for the technical user,
• the unique name of the current Scheduler instance (required if you employ multiple Scheduler instances; optional, if there is only one Scheduler instance).
(The config.xml file provides additional hints on configuration options.)
Once you have configured it, start the Cumulus 11 Scheduler service:
• Computer Management > Services
Configuring under macOS and UNIX
Edit the config.xml file in the installation folder of the Scheduler Server Application.
You must specify
• the Cumulus Server the application should connect to [IP address or name of the computer running the Cumulus Server],
• the technical user that should be used when connecting to the Cumulus Server,
• the password for the technical user,
• the name of the current Scheduler instance (required if you employ multiple Scheduler instances; optional, if there is only one Scheduler instance).
(The config.xml file provides additional hints on configuration options.)
Once you have configured it, start the Cumulus Scheduler Server Application using the CumulusScheduler.sh with the parameter start: sh CumulusScheduler.sh start
Other available parameters for CumulusScheduler.sh are: console, stop, restart, status, and dump
License Issues
• The Scheduler Server Application is a Cumulus Java Classes installation that requires a Cumulus Java Classes read/write license for the computer on which it is running.
• The Scheduler Server Application occupies a Cumulus Client license when connected to the Cumulus Server because it requires full read/write access.
