mcfeely-manage - queue management system for McFeely
mcfeely-manage <mcfeely-spawn pid> <fd of in
pipe> <fd of out pipe>
The mcfeely-manage program is responsible for reading and managing the McFeely queue.
mcfeely-manage listens on a FIFO called trigger in the queue directory. It learns about new jobs and their associated tasks
and if a task needs to be done the task number is passed to mcfeely-spawn down the out pipe.
mcfeely-manage then waits for results information on the in pipe. Results are stored in
the queue. When all tasks in job have succeeded or failed, that job is
done. mcfeely-manage operates on multiple jobs and tasks concurrently.
See the OVERVIEW document a detailed description of how tasks move through mcfeely-manage.
