Major Improvements
- New Process Type configuration attributes are introduced:
- Real and CPU time limits for batch processes
- Limit for the total number of farm nodes
processes of the type can run on
- Internal protocol improvements significantly reduced multi-process
job section start time
- Launchers use more sophysticated and robust
algorithm to detect another
instance running on the same node
- "fbs submit" command now accepts positional arguments
which can
be used to define fields of JDF file at the job
submission time
Major Bugs Fixed
- Potential over-allocation of resources caused by slow response of
a farm node is fixed
- Pipe used by launcher to receive log information from batch
process which is being started now is closed properly
- Launcher does not require restart if moved to new node class
