Distribution of a prebuilt external worker to nodes
wojciech-wilk opened this issue · comments
Hi, I have a question to which I couldn't find an answer in the documentation:
I have a prebuilt tarball of an external worker. It has been copied to the tgz_packages_dir directory (in my case /home/mzbench/.local/cache/mzbench_api/packages/name.tgz). Is there a way to distribute it to the nodes?
Maybe there is another, more proper way to do this? What I want to accomplish is to build the worker once.
Hi Galhad,
the idea is that system does that for you implicitly, we thought that a user don't need to control this as far as system works properly.
But, there is an option for that, if you disable:
custom_os_code_builds and auto_update_deployed_code
it will use the tarball for any worker OS and won't try to update/rebuild it.
Once you enable it and try to run, check logs for error messages because it will contain the information on where API server is trying to look for the archive.
Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions,
thanks!
It worked, thank you very much!
