Description

A process managed by PLMS is defined as a component in the config file. The component_name is used to specify inter-process dependencies or membership in a module.

A component contains tasks and component settings (e.g., process parameters, attributes, environments, etc.).

Reserved component names include all, none, and plms.

Multiplicity

Zero or more instances.

Constraints

• The contents can be in any order. The component_name and module_name share the same name space and names MUST be unique.

• The parser rejects the configuration file if the component name is already in use.

• Empty component blocks are valid components.

• The length of component_name must be 1023 characters or less.
