2 Folders, Same machine - do the pending jobs know what is pending in the other folder?

Hi all!

Let’s say i have two different folders:

Folder 1: Has Machine 1 allocated to it, runs foreground processes unattended.

Folder 2: Has Machine 1 and Machine 2 allocated to it, both running unattended foreground processes aswell. Both machines dynamically allocated.

Scenario: Machine 2 is unavailable. Folder 1 has a running job on machine 1. Folder 2 now selects Machine 1 for a job.

Question: Will orchestrator know that there is a job currently running in folder 1, and thereby wait for that to finish? Or will the folder 2 job start aswell, so that the foreground processes will get in the way of each other?

Hey @Mads_Commerou

Foreground jobs can’t be ran in parallel, So obviously it waits for the on-going job to complete and gets triggered after that in a queued way (First in First out - incase of multiple pending jobs)

Hope that helps.

Thanks
