2.5 Setting the job execution environment

The JP1/AJS3 job execution environment consists of manager hosts, which manage job definitions and distribute jobs to execution hosts, and agent hosts, which execute the distributed jobs.

To execute jobs, information about the agent hosts must be registered in the manager host. In JP1/AJS3, the agent hosts that execute jobs are managed by logical names, referred to as execution agent names. To determine where to distribute each job, the manager host maps the execution agent name defined in the job with the physical host name in the registered agent host information.
