Glossary
Resource: A numeric variable in OpCon representing a finite pool. Jobs can be configured to require a set number of resource units to run, limiting concurrent executions and preventing resource contention.
Machine: A platform defined in the OpCon database that has an Agent installed. OpCon routes job execution requests to machines via SMANetCom, and machines report job completion status back to SAM.
