ecoMode

last updated: 2024-09-24
ecoMode is a mode of operation that allows for a more efficient processing of workload.

Definition

A machine is running in ecoMode, wenn all energy it does consume it produced by DTZ owner systems.

Criteria for Running in ecoMode

  • energy is produced internally (on privately owned hardware), mainly through solar panels
  • energy is stored in batteries, for later consumption
  • energy is directly consumed by nodes
  • energy from the batteries can also be consumed by the nodes

Operational Aspects

  • EcoMode can be enforced on Jobs (asynchronous workload)
  • EcoMode cannot be set on Services (synchronous workload)
  • DTZ always tries to run Job in ecoMode and falls back to normal Node if no node is available
