| Remarks |
|
The allocation process evaluates each consumer and attempts to allocate it to the highest-ranked resource instance. If that resource is already fully allocated, the function tries the next highest-ranked resource instance, and so on, for all resource instances and all consumers. If there are multiple resources with the same rank, consumers are allocated to the first resource of that rank that has sufficient capacity. This function will fail if there are no ranked resources in the resource set, or if there are not enough resources in the resource set to allocate to all the consumers in the consumer set. On failure, all pending allocations are rolled back. |
