Minimum Worker Limit in Network Processing

[KBL]

Hi, I am managing a large project with 4-5 nodes running simultaneously. To maximize throughput, I typically set the worker limit to 1 per project, as multiple nodes working on a single project seems to yield diminishing returns. However, as projects complete and the number of nodes exceeds the number of projects (e.g. 4 workers on 2 projects), I have to come back and manually adjust worker limits to allow multiple nodes per project.

It would be fantastic to have a "Minimum Worker Limit" alongside the existing maximum setting. For example, if the minimum limit is set to 1, the server could automatically reallocate available nodes to ensure minimum limits are maintained, while the maximum limit continues to cap resource use on a single project. This would streamline resource allocation and reduce the need for manual adjustments.

Thank you!

Hello KBL,

Maybe you can switch the scheduling mode to Parallel via Agisoft Network Monitor and it will solve the task? In this mode the server will try to distribute the available nodes among all available pending batches, rather then trying to finish the batches in sequential mode.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Alexey.
