Creating a node group for the execution environment

Use a node group to tell WebSphere Extended Deployment which nodes in your cell are capable of running the long-running application.

Before you begin

If you already have a node group that contains the appropriate nodes for the long-running application, you can skip the following steps.

Procedure

  1. Determine the nodes in your cell that host the execution environment and long-running application.
  2. In the administrative console, select System administration > Node groups
  3. Click New.
  4. Enter an appropriate name for the node group. For example, LongRunningNG.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Select the node group you created from the table.
  7. Select Node group members, then click Add.
    Restriction:
    Any node group that hosts a long-running execution environment and applications must not share members with other node groups. A node that is used for long-running work can be in the DefaultNodeGroup node group, and at most, one other node group. You can freely mix grid and transactional dynamic clusters within each node group. This restriction applies only if long-running applications are deployed to dynamic clusters in the node group.
  8. Select the boxes for the nodes that should host the long-running scheduler, then click Add.
