Reloading an External program task in a particular scheduler node

[ArockiyaM]

Hi Everyone,

We have two scheduler nodes (S.Node 1 and S.Node2). Due to security reasons, we are trying to trigger couple of batch files in command prompt in S.Node1 only.  But Qlik sometimes assign the S.Node2 directly due to which the batch files are failing. Currently we are simply trying to pass local path of the batch file in the "Path Section".

It would be great if you can tell how we can acheive load balancing in this case? Or do we have to tweak the parameters in the External Program tasks. 

Regards,

Hello,

We're facing the same problem. Have you found a solution for load balancing external tasks?

Best regards,

Same issue here,

I have dedicated nodes for load balancing, I tried to add to the custom property the "External program tasks" and also to the load balancing roles this value ExternalProgramTask_*

flagged the external program but it doesn't work,

see the attached screenshots.

Ido.
