Broker Spanning Service Limitations
Broker Spanning Service limitations are as follows:
| • | Shared Services is not supported. Shared Service functionality conflicts with Broker Spanning Services. |
| • | GridCache is not supported. Since a Service’s cache is local to a Broker, the tasks from other Brokers cannot access each other’s caches. |
| • | Task Dependencies are not supported. Task Dependency is Broker-scope and therefore cannot work across Brokers. |
| • | Service dependencies are not supported. Service Dependency is Broker-scope and therefore cannot work across Brokers. |
| • | AutoPack is not supported. |
| • | PDriver is not supported. |
| • | The number of priority levels, which is set at Admin > System Admin > Manager Configuration > Services > Scheduling, must be the same on all Brokers. If you change this value on a Broker, you must restart the Broker. |
| • | Engine Timeout Minutes > 0 is not supported. That is, if an Engine logs off while working on a Task, it does not continue to work on that while attempting to log back in to a Broker. |
