we have a cluster on Qlik Sense with 5 nodes. We are trying to create a balancing rules in which an application is opened only by a specific node from hub, while that the same node can reload all applications as scheduler role. We configured two separate rules: one for load balancing open sessions of applications and one for load balancing application reloads. These are the rules:
"open sessions of applications": resource.name="AppName" and node.name="Node1" with App_* in ResourceFilter
"load balancing application reloads": resource.resourcetype="App" and node.name="Node1" with ReloadTask_* in ResourceFilter
The current behavior is that the "AppName" application opens correctly only on the chosen node, but only "AppName" reload works via scheduler on that node and not the other apps.
The longer answer: Load balancing is about assigning Engines to Apps. Engines can service two purposes: reloads and consumption. The Engine<>App assignment applies no matter the work-load asked of the Engine.
