Dynamic Resource Manager

AkshatTangri1 — Thu, 24 Sep 2020 08:02:00 GMT

Hi,

I went through the Dynamic Resource Manager webcast. As I was trying to implement the same in my system , I was not able to get appropriate resources to do the same.

Can anybody of you please guide me to get the resources to get this implemented . Also, if the release file can be shared , that would be great.

Thanks & Regards,
Akshat Tangri

Hi Ashkat,

The asset will eventually be published on the DX. @Jarod Yang is still in the process of writing up the user guide and touch-up the solution a bit before the release, so this may take a while.

If you are interested, you can find attached the release file of the DRM solution for your reference.

The DRM-Interact demo Jarod did towards the end requires the On-Prem Interact add-on which is not yet officially launched. Please contact your BP Account/PS team for the details of the On-Prem Interact Add-On. We will share the DRM+Interact release on the relevant thread in the Events Community once the Interact Add-On is released 😊

Hi Lorena,

Got it! By the way, can we get a rough estimate when this be available in DX? Solution is pretty awesome and this is what we are looking for (instead of creating one)!

Hi Jin,

Although the plan is to have the asset available in the DX, this will take some development time. In the meantime, the Interact Solution will be shared on the community for the early adopters to try out while we keep working on the DX build, user guide, etc.

The early adopter interact build should be on the community within the next three weeks.

We'll keep you posted regarding the DX version, but as mentioned it will take longer since it implies more testing and writing up of guides.

Thanks!

@AkshatTangri1, @Jin_KnightSarmi, @Lorena Seco de Herrera Ortega, please check out the latest release here containing the user guide on how it can be deployed into your environment. Please read through the user guide first before importing anything into your environment. Also, this solution works with or without Interact deployed. If you don't have the Interact Add-on in your environment, you can still use the DRM-Process Launcher - Scheduler/Manual to launch processes.

Since this is the early release, any comment, feedback would be highly appreciated 🙂

Hi Jarod,
I Just imported this release 1.8.3 version and using Without Interact process. I have couple issues need your help here.
1. Bot Process (DRM-Process Controller without startup parameters) executing as expected but with parameters not executing. Even if I mention the parameters in input file (DRM-Process Start Up Param.csv).
2. Once a Bot process complete the DRM process controller not stopping rather it keep looking for next QUEUE ITEMS (from DRM-Process Controller Queue)

Could you please guide me here.

Thanks

Subhani

Hello Subhani,

Once you have updated the CSV file, you need to run the DRM-Configuration Updater process to load the updated configurations to the DRM-Configuration work queue. Ensure you provide the Configuration File Folder path (e.g. C:\BluePrism) and have all the updated files in the folder.
The DRM-Controller process is designed to run 24/7 by default since it acts as an automated controller. You can customize the solution to run on-demand if necessary.

Hi Jarod Yang,

Good day to you. I have question about Process Mapping csv.

If we configured multiple runtime resources in Column G (Allowed Resource List) and somehow we need to trigger Login Agent on each runtime resource before main process is executed. In this case, how are we going to send multi login credential (Column A) into respective runtime resources (Column G)?

Thanks

Hello SeeAnn,

I assume you should already have the per RR credentials set up in your credential manager like this. If so, you can simply leave the first column blank. Then DRM will resort back to the standard Login Agent logic to retrieve the credential to log in the RR.

Hi Jarod,

Thanks for your patience and quick response. I've one more question that do I need to consume a license or dedicated Run Time to schedule DRM-Controller process as it is running 24/7 ?
or is there a way to schedule as a background process on any machine like app server ?

Thanks

Subhani

RE: Dynamic Resource Manager

jarodyang — Fri, 23 Jun 2023 03:13:00 GMT

No a problem Subhani.

License: Regarding the license, if you use it continuously, a license will be required. However, if you see it as a replacement for tedious manual labour, specifically that of bot controllers, then justifying the cost of the license should not be a difficult task.
Background mode: The DRM-Controller / DRM-Controller (without Interact Features) process and DRM-Process Launcher - Scheduler/Manual process can all run in the background mode and you can even run multiple instances of them on the same Runtime Resource. While it's also possible to run them on the Application Server, it's advisable to prioritize dedicating a separate Runtime Resource for DRM-related processes if your AS is already experiencing performance issues due to heavy loads.

I have attached the latest version of the DRM solution to this post. On the DX, it says 1.8.3, although it should be 1.8.4, which fixed the background mode running issue for Interact-related processes. If you don't need Interact features, 1.8.3 should work just fine as well

Hi guys

After watching the webcast, I can appreciate your aggravation at not being able to locate the right resources for using the Dynamic Resource Manager. When the necessary resources are not easily accessible, it can be difficult.

Aliya,

Can you elaborate on the specific challenge you were facing? Also, you were responding to a post that's three years old. For the latest releases and guides please visit the asset page on the DX: https://digitalexchange.blueprism.com/dx/entry/3439/solution/dynamic-resource-manager

smssubhani — Wed, 23 Aug 2023 19:31:00 GMT

Thanks a lot for your response Jarod, really helpful.

Further one more question regarding the DRM - PROCESS LAUNCHER - Scheduler / Manual process or in general we are adding PROCESS NAME to the DRM - PROCESS CONTROLLER QUEUE.
Q: Can we trigger existing Schedules NAME from BP Control Room instead of triggering with PROCESS NAME ?

my scenario is: currently I've a common process with start up params about 3 different schedules created where in each schedule I can run same process with different start up parameters (like diff folder paths) then that process will execute only files with in specific folder.

But for DRM I am able to save only one SET of process and respective start up params in DRM_Process_Startup_Params.csv. How can I save start up params for 2nd schedule ?

Tried Schedule Matrix .CSV is not helpful.

long story short is there a way that I can trigger already existing BP Control Room Schedules ? Please advise.

Thanks
Subhani

Hello Subhani,

DRM cannot trigger schedules by their names in the Blue Prism Scheduler. However, you can trigger schedules defined in the DRM-Schedule Matrix.csv.

Once you load the Schedule Matrix using the Configuration Updater process, you can have DRM - PROCESS LAUNCHER - Scheduler / Manual process launch schedules listed in the Schedule Matrix. As you can see below, in the Schedule Matrix, you can define different StartUp Parameters for the same process for every occurrence in the table.

This table significantly simplifies your schedule configurations in the Blue Prism Scheduler, as shown below.
