CCA Grid Nodes

Grid processing is used to increase performance by distributing operational workloads to multiple Grid Nodes. A server is capable of supporting multiple CCA Grid Nodes each with multiple threads. CA Configuration Automation operations are Grid-enabled so they can be divided into independent executable entities. These executable entities are distributed to available Grid servers, Grid nodes, and threads for execution.

CCA Grid Nodes are supported on Linux, UNIX, and Windows platforms and have their own installation programs. After installing a CCA Grid Node and registering it with the CA Configuration Automation Server, Grid processing is invisible to CA Configuration Automation users.
