Hi Silvano, What is your purpose for parallelization of nomos?
Run multiple nomos instances in parallel stably is not a easy task. One reason why we do not add this feature is because newer nomos is(should be) more accurate than the older one, so just schedule the latest nomos. If you just want to compare the license report on different version of nomos, there is one workaround: 1. Unpack one package to one folder through ununpack agent from command line. 2. Run different version of nomos from command line on that folder to get license report individually, then compare them. If this workaround works for your goal and do not how to use this workaround, please let me know, will give you an example in detail. -Larry From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gobeille, Robert Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2014 1:12 AM To: Cirujano Cuesta, Silvano Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FOSSology] Multiple Nomos instances Hi Silvano, We took the parallelization out in 2.0 because we were trying to make the scheduler more robust. Also, the implementation was not efficient and involved a great deal of communication overhead. We did have a plan for a more efficient scheme in 2.0 but it was never implemented. We need to give this some more priority. Thanks for reminding us of the importance of this feature. I'm going to raise the priority and make you a "watcher" on the issue so you will see any progress.

I was expecting to get parallelization as FOSSology 1.x does it (one job can be split among different agents), but I already noticed that it works as you explained. A colleague of mine already pointed out to me, that such an enhancement is already planed [1].

However, if you have multiple simultaneous uploads, then multiple nomos's should start to service each upload.

The block [HOSTS] of the file /usr/local/etc/fossology/fossology.conf contains this entry: localhost = localhost /usr/local/etc/fossology 10 And in the block [default] of the file /usr/local/etc/fossology/mods-enabled/nomos/nomos.conf this is the entry: max = -1 I also tried modifying those values, restarting the server... As far as I understood the documentation, those two are the only parameters that control how many Nomos instances can run in parallel. Am I doing something wrong?
