In order to enable DDS environment you need to source the DDS_env.sh
script.
The script is located in the directory where you installed PoD.
cd [DDS INSTALLATION]
source DDS_env.sh
In order to deploy agents you can use different DDS plug-ins.
DDS's SSH plug-in is the best and the fastest way to deploy DDS agents. When you don't have an RMS or you want to use a Cloud based system or even if you want just to use resources around you, like computers of your colleagues, then the plug-in is the best way to go.
First of all you need to define resources.
Then use dds-submit to deploy DDS agents on the given resources:
dds-submit --rms ssh
-c FULL_PATH_TO_YOUR_SSHPLUGIN_RESOURCE_FILE
Using dds-info you can query different kinds of information from DDS. For example you can check how many agents are already online:
dds-info -n
or query more detailed info about agents:
dds-info -l
Once you get enough online agents, you can activate them. Activation of agents means, that DDS will use the given topology to distribute user tasks across available resources (agents):
dds-topology --activate FULL_PATH_TO_YOUR_TOPOLOGY_FILE
DDS will automatically check whether available resources are actually sufficient to execute the given topology.
