Creating a Load Balance Group

To create Load Balance Groups, you must have either OPER or SYSPRV privileges.

To view the nodes that are members of a Load Balance group, click the group name in the Load Balance Groups list. You can move a node from the Unselected Nodes list to the Selected Nodes list by clicking on the node name and then clicking on the ">" button. The ">>" button lets you move all Unselected Nodes to the Selected Nodes list. The "<" and "<<" buttons remove nodes from the Selected Nodes list.

To create Load Balance Groups with the Motif Interface, follow these steps:

  1. Select Load Balance Groups Editor… from the Edit menu. You can also click the Groups Editor button from the Auxiliary Job Edit dialog box.
  2. Enter the group name in the New Group field. Click Apply.
  3. Select nodes from the Unselected Nodes list.

    The selected nodes appear in the Selected Nodes list.

  4. When you have finished defining the Load Balance Group, click OK. The Load Balance Group is created.
