How Job Management Manager Works › Job Dependencies › Remote Nodes

Remote Nodes

The wide area network feature allows you to:

• Use Job Management Manager commands on remote nodes, if you have either a proxy account or a valid account and a password to access those nodes.
• Add job dependencies on remote jobs, if you have READ access to those jobs. If you are setting up remote synchronizations to jobs that run on a cluster that has no cluster alias, you need to specify the dependency to one specific node in that cluster and then node restrict the job running on that cluster. Without the node restriction, the job may be load balanced to any node in the cluster and the dependency may not be satisfied.

  When you set up remote synchronizations to jobs that run in a cluster that has an alias, always set the remote synchronization in terms of the cluster alias. This set up lets the dependency be satisfied regardless of what node the job runs on. If the job on the cluster is node restricted, set the dependency to that node.

The following commands and qualifiers are not supported over the network:
