Apple Qmaster 3 - Manual (Page 58)

Note: Although Apple Qadministrator currently allows you to create a cluster with
unmanaged services, valid clusters require at least one managed service for the cluster
to be viewable in Apple Qmaster, Compressor, and Batch Monitor.
About QuickClusters
QuickClusters offer a simple and automated way to create and configure clusters, as well
as an alternative to creating and configuring clusters manually with Apple Qadministrator.
QuickClusters with enabled unmanaged support automatically configure themselves and
use any available unmanaged services on the same local network (subnet). QuickClusters
listen for unmanaged service advertisements and may mark or remember any of them
for later use.
Creating QuickClusters
You can create and modify QuickClusters in the Apple Qmaster pane of System Preferences.
To create and modify QuickClusters
1 Open the Apple Qmaster pane of System Preferences.
2 Under “Share this computer as,” select “QuickCluster with services.”
3 Optionally, you can configure a number of settings before you turn on the processing
services. (See
Scheduling Service Availability .)
