Agents are reconfiguring to run on all nodes whenever server is restarted after Pega 8.4 upgrade
Hi,
We recently upgraded our application from Pega 7.3 to 8.4, Initially agents were configured to run on specific nodes and stop on specific nodes but after upgrade whenever servers are restarted agents are reconfiguring to run on all nodes irrespective of previous configuration. Their pattren of running and timing hasn't changed except the nodes on which they are running.
Can someone please tell me why is this happening and how to correct it ?
@SpandanaP8045. Confirm what is "associated with node types" value in the agent rule.
If it is backgroundProcessing, it is tagged with multiple nodes.
solution:
option #1:
using node classification, provide a unique name to any one of the node. tag the agent to that node.
example : -DNodeType=BackgroundProcessing,WebUser,<NewName>
Option #2: depends on agent type, change to job scheduler or queue processor. it has the option to run only one node. the system will automatically take care
