The objects within the Resource Manager work in
concert to match jobs submitted to the Symera
system with nodes, or individual workstations,
available to run them. The Resource Manager is a
fault-tolerant object that tracks the nodes within
the cluster, schedules jobs to be run across these
nodes, and tracks the progress of jobs being
executed within the cluster.
Jobs submitted to the Resource Manager consist
of a job file (a marked up text file that describes
the job's system requirements), data files (data,
legacy executables, etc.), a primary drone (which
Symera uses to start the job), and the other
drones (that do the actual work on the nodes).
