Configuring Service Node Processing
Use the Apple Qmaster pane in System Preferences or Apple Qadministrator to set
processing services on a computer.
To turn on processing services:
1 Open the Apple Qmaster pane in System Preferences.
2 Optionally, you can configure a number of settings before you turn on the processing
services. (See “
Options in the Apple Qmaster Pane in System Preferences ” on page 42.)
Note: It’s easiest to do this now because you can’t make these settings when
processing services are enabled. To make these settings after services have been
enabled, you need to turn off the services, make the settings, and then turn the
services on again.
3 In the “Share this computer as” section, select one of the following buttons:
 “QuickCluster with services”
 “Services and cluster controller”
 “Services only”
4 In the Services section, do one of the following:
 In the Share column, select the checkbox for Compressor Processing (for Compressor
services).
 In the Share column, select the checkbox for Rendering (for Apple Qmaster services).
5 Click Start Sharing.
The processing service is enabled, making this computer a service node that can
process batches.
