Sun Studio 12: Distributed Make (dmake)

Controlling dmake Jobs

The distribution of dmake jobs is controlled in two ways:

  1. A dmake user on a dmake host can specify the machines they want to use as build servers and the number of jobs they want to distribute to each build server.

  2. The owner (a user that can alter the /etc/opt/SPROdmake/dmake.conf file) on a build server can control the maximum total number of dmake jobs that can be distributed to that build server.
