The auto nice daemon activates itself in certain intervals and renices jobs
|
|
according to their priority and CPU usage. Jobs owned by root are left alone.
|
|
Jobs are never increased in their priority.
|
|
|
|
AND is very flexible. The renice intervals can be adjusted as well as the
|
|
default nice level and the activation intervals. A priority database stores
|
|
user/group/job tuples along with their renice values for three CPU usage time
|
|
ranges. Negative nice levels are interpreted as signals to be sent to a
|
|
process, triggered by CPU usage; this way, Netscapes going berserk can be
|
|
killed automatically. The strategy for searching the priority database can be
|
|
configured.
|
|
|
|
AND also provides network-wide configuration files with host-specific
|
|
sections, as well as wildcard/regexp support for commands in the priority
|
|
database.
