How to Use project Attributes to Bind New Processes to a Pool

To automatically bind new processes in a project to a pool, add the project.pool attribute to each entry in the project database.

For example, assume you have a configuration with two pools that are named studio and backstage. The /etc/project file has the following contents.


user.paul:1024::::project.pool=studio
user.george:1024::::project.pool=studio
user.ringo:1024::::project.pool=backstage
passes:1027::paul::project.pool=backstage

With this configuration, processes that are started by user paul are bound by default to the studio pool.
