The goal of this section is to get you to install and run Qube! as quickly as possible.
A Qube! farm has 3 main components:
- The Qube! clients, machines that submit jobs. Typically these are artists or end-users workstations.
- The Qube! workers, machines that run jobs. A client can also be a worker.
- The Qube! supervisor, which controls what jobs are sent to which workers.
You will install a Supervisor, a Worker and a Client, and then submit a job from the Client to the Supervisor, which will hand it off to the Worker. All three of these roles can be played by the same machine, so if you want to investigate Qube! on a single laptop, you can do that. Or if your ambitions are larger, you can do that from here as well. Whatever your final goal, to install and start using Qube!, follow these steps.
