Administering resque pool

To manage the number of resque workers available, edit the resque-pool.yml file in /opt/$HYDRA_NAME/config. This file defines the workers and their queues. The default settings are:

video: 2
"audio,audit,batch_update,characterize,event,ingest,templates,unzip,video": 5

This reserves two workers for the video queue and shares 2 workers among all queues. You may want to change these settings to reserve workers for other queues, depending on your system requirements.
