Controller plugin - "progress_error"

Start scaling

Expected parameters

• check_interval: Time between application state checks, in seconds. The controller checks the application state every check_interval seconds.
• trigger_down: The absolute value of the difference between job progress and time progress that triggers the scale down.
• trigger_up: The absolute value of the difference between job progress and time progress that triggers the scale up.
• min_cap: The minimum possible value of resources that can be allocated to the application. Must be in range [0,100].
• max_cap: The maximum possible value of resources that can be allocated to the application. Must be in range [0,100].
• actuation_size: Amount of resources added or removed when scaling up or down. Must be in range [0,100].
• metric_rounding: The amount of decimal digits considered when taking scaling decisions. e.g.:If the scaler gets a metric value 0.567 from the metric source and metric_rounding = 2 then the value the scaler will use is 0.57.
