Workers

PDFRSS

The workers section (required) specifies configurations for worker groups (groups of workers). SimSpace Weaver uses this information together with placement_constraints to configure the underlying infrastructure of your simulation. Only 1 worker group is currently supported.

To specify the properties for a worker group, replace worker-group-name with a name of your choice. The name must be 3-64 characters long and can contain the characters A -Z , a -z , 0 -9 , and _ - (hyphen). Specify the properties of the worker group after the name.

workers:
  worker-group-name:
    type: "sim.c5.24xlarge"
    desired: number-of-workers

Properties

type

Specifies worker type.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Valid values: sim.c5.24xlarge

desired

Specifies the desired number of workers for this worker group.

Required: Yes

Type: Integer

Valid values: 1-3. Your service quota (limit) for the number of workers for your simulations determines the maximum value of this property. For example, if your service quota is 2 then the maximum value for this property is 2. You can request an increase to your service quota.
