Task Manager Processes in Concurrent Mode

The Task Manager creates two additional manager processes in concurrent mode, Policy Manager and Replication Manager. These additional processes run as CAF plug-ins. As a result, a total of three independent Task Manager plug-ins run in parallel. Each individual plug-in is dedicated to handle a specific set of tasks independent of the other plug-in. The tasks are prioritized for each plug-in, and the priority of a task belonging to one plug-in does not have any relationship with the priority of a task belonging to the other plug-in. For example, priority of a policy task does not affect the priority of a job container task because these two tasks belong to two separate plug-ins and follow the priority specified in their specific plug-in.

The following are the three Task Manager plug-ins that run in concurrent mode:

Task Manager (TM)

Handles the Maintenance, Data Transport Monitor, and job container tasks. The log file for the Task Manager process in concurrent mode is TRC_USD_TASKMAN.log.

Policy Manager (PM)

Handles the Scheduled Policy Evaluation and Ad-hoc Policy Evaluation tasks. The log file for the Policy Manager process in concurrent mode is TRC_USD_POLMAN.log.

Replication Manager (RM)

Handles the Distribution Receiver, Distribution Acknowledgement, and Computer Mover tasks. The log file for the Replication Manager process in concurrent mode is TRC_USD_REPMAN.log.

Note: The System Delivery Engine represents the Task Manager, Policy Manager, and Replication Manager plug-ins combined together in the case of concurrent mode and only the Task Manager plug-in in the case of non-concurrent mode.
