Question: How to explicitly mount drives on Windows Workers?
The worker_drive_map configuration parameter tells Qube Workers running on Windows the explicit list of drives that it should mount before running jobs.
Option 1: Centrally set the configuration of Workers from the Supervisor using the QubeGUI
- On the Qube Supervisor running as an Administrator, launch the QubeGUI
- Under the Farm Layout, select the Workers and rt-click on "Configure"
- Set the worker_drive_map fields for drive leetter, UNC path, username, and password.
- Click OK Button to save it.
- The configuration will then be automatically pushed out to the Workers
Option 2: Set the configuration directly on the Worker via the QubeGUI
- On each Qube Worker running as an Administrator, launch the QubeGUI
- Click on Administration->Configure (Local)
- Set the worker_drive_map fields for drive leetter, UNC path, username, and password.
- Click OK Button to save it.
- The configuration will then be automatically saved for that Worker and the Worker restarted
Option 3: Modify the Worker's local qb.conf or the Supervisor's central qbwrk.conf files.
See Forum Posting 1789 <http://www.pipelinefx.com/forum/index.php?topic=683.msg1789#msg1789 (http://www.pipelinefx.com/forum/index.php?topic=683.msg1789#msg1789)> for details on the format.
TESTING: Run a commandline job with the command "net use".
Note: Explicitly specify the "host" parameter so it runs on a particular Worker.
