Class JobAgent

All Implemented Interfaces:
AccessControlled, Identifiable, Nameable, Ownable, Removable, Shareable

public class JobAgent
extends CommonItem
This class represents a job agent, which is a program running in another virtual machine on the same or a different server. The job agent is regularly checking the database for jobs that are waiting to be executed. It is not neccessary for a job agent to be registered in the database but if it is the core can provide services that are otherwise inaccesible.
  • Keep track of which plugins are installed on the agent's server
  • Provide information to other clients about what the agent is doing, ie. memory/cpu usage, which plugins that are executing, etc.
  • Priority boosting for plugins that should bypass the queing system.
