Abstract

Provided is a method, system, and computer program product for managing tasks in a computing system using a virtual node. A processor may register a virtual node for handling tasks allocated by a scheduling node in a computing system, the computing system comprising the scheduling node and a group of actual computing nodes processing tasks allocated by the scheduling node, and the scheduling node takes the virtual node as an actual computing node. A performance level of the computing system is obtained. Capacity of the virtual node is set based on the obtained performance level, such that the scheduling node allocates tasks to the virtual node based on the capacity of the virtual node. In response to at least one task being allocated by the scheduling node to the virtual node, the at least one task is received by the virtual node.
