The following manifest properties are set automatically. Unlike built-in properties, these properties do not have to be added to a collector to populate them.
The properties marked as Selector in the table description can be used in a selector. The others serve only to provide information in the manifest.
Property | Description |
---|---|
BF_AGENT_VERSION | Selector. The version number of the agent that is installed on the server. |
BF_EXCLUSIVE | Selector. It is a flag that takes
no operator or value. If a selector includes this property, all slots
on the selected server are reserved for the duration of the job. If a step in the job specifies a different server to run on, all current slots on the current server continue to be reserved while the other server runs the step. |
BF_JOBS | Selector. The number of jobs (steps) that the server resource is running at the same time. This value is updated every time the console assigns a step to the server, independent of other manifest property updates. |
BF_LAST_REFRESH | The time of the last update of built-in properties in the manifest. The value is reported as a UNIX® timestamp: the number of seconds since January 1, 1970. |
BF_LASTJOBS | The number of jobs that the server was running the last time the manifest was refreshed. |
BF_LAST_UPDATE | The time of the last update of run-command properties to the manifest. The value is reported, such as a UNIX® timestamp, as the number of seconds since January 1, 1970. |
BF_LOADRATIO | Selector. A calculated value, reported as a ratio: the number of jobs (BF_JOBS) divided by the maximum number of jobs allowed for the server (Max Jobs setting). A server that has 1 job running and 4 Max Jobs has a load ratio of .25. |
BF_NAME | Selector. Specifies the server resource to run on. The value is the name of the server resource. The BF_NAME property is not displayed in the manifest list. |
BF_RESERVE | Selector. It is a flag that takes
no operator or value. If a selector includes this property, a slot
is reserved on the selected server for the duration of the job.
This flag prevents project delays that occur when projects lose their slot on a server when one or more of their steps are run on other servers. |
