About the Compressor Service Sharing Pane

Both the Final Cut Studio installer and the Apple Qmaster Node Installer include the
Compressor Service Sharing pane, in which you can quickly set up the computer as an
unmanaged service node. Selecting the Yes option in this pane is the first of two steps
in setting up AutoClusters in Compressor. An AutoCluster is a temporary QuickCluster
that you create automatically when you submit a batch. For more information about
AutoClusters, see

Using Compressor AutoClusters

.

Note: You can change any of these settings at a later time in the Apple Qmaster pane of
System Preferences.

If you are unsure which role each computer will play in your network, just install the
Apple Qmaster software on each computer in your network. You can sort out the details
later. See

Basic Components of the Apple Qmaster Distributed Processing System

for

additional information on what roles individual computers can play in the distributed
processing system.
