    Info
    titleWindows Only

    When a Worker is in User mode, all users wishing to execute jobs on Windows hosts will need to register their passwords with the Supervisor.  If this is not done, jobs will fail with a "badlogin" error.

    Registering a user's Windows password can be done from WranglerView, using the menu item "Administration->Register Windows Password", or by using the qblogin command:

    qblogin [user]

    where user is an optional user name, otherwise the current user is assumed. Qblogin will prompt for a password twice for verification. The encrypted password is stored with the Supervisor, which transmits it to the Worker each time it tries to run a job on a Windows host.

    If a user password is changed, the user will need to run qblogin again to update the password with the Supervisor. If the password turns out to be incorrect, the job will will go into the badlogin state. A job in the badlogin state will need to be resubmitted after the password is updated in the Supervisor. If the enforce_password flag is set in the Supervisor, the user will not be able to submit jobs until the password is updated.

     

    Switching to Proxy Mode

    Centrally from WranglerView

    ...

    1. Designate a proxy user account name. By default, Qube! creates a user called "qubeproxy," for example. This proxy account must exist on all workers, either as a local User Account, or as a network account, controlled by a centralized authentication domain (preferred).
    2. Use qblogin with the --display option to output an encrypted password for the proxy user.
        qblogin --display user
      where user is the proxy user name.
    3. Add the following settings to the Worker qb.conf or the Supervisor qbwrk.conf.
        proxy_account = user
      where user is the designated proxy user.
        proxy_password = pass
      where pass is the encrypted password output from qblogin.
        proxy_execution_mode = proxy
    4. Remove enforce_password from supervisor_flags setting in the Supervisor qb.conf
