| 1 | = Including opaque data in scheduler request messages = |
| 2 | |
| 3 | If the file '''client_opaque.txt''' exists in the client data directory, |
| 4 | it will be included in scheduler request messages as follows: |
| 5 | {{{ |
| 6 | <client_opaque> |
| 7 | <!{CDATA[ |
| 8 | (contents of client_opaque.txt) |
| 9 | ]]> |
| 10 | </client_opaque> |
| 11 | }}} |
| 12 | and will be read into the string '''SCHEDULER_REQUEST::client_opaque''' on the server, |
| 13 | where it can be accessed by customizable scheduler functions. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | This mechanism lets you, for example, designate particular hosts as |
| 16 | being trusted, having some software resource installed, and so on. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | This is implemented in version [24586] of the server code. |
| 19 | It will work with client versions 6.13.11+. |
