Task 3. Establish Class and Executor Configurations

Example

Figure 3-3 shows an example of a table showing the classes and executors planned

for a scheduler running on a four-CPU node. As well as showing the executors

assigned to each CPU, the figure illustrates class distribution among those executors.

For example, executors E1, E4, E8, and E12 have classes C1 through C4 assigned to

them in different order. Jobs in those classes have similar processing opportunities

because each class appears once at the top of a class list, once in second position,

and so on.
