Hi @Mohanchaitanya

I think we can help! We have a set of administrative tutorials and documentation to guide you through the process.

I would suggest staring in these places:

- [Hands-on: Connecting Galaxy to a compute cluster / Connecting Galaxy to a compute cluster / Galaxy Server administration](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/admin/tutorials/connect-to-compute-cluster/tutorial.html)
- [Connecting to a Cluster — Galaxy Project 25.0.2.dev0 documentation](https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/cluster.html)
- with more examples in [Galaxy Job Configuration — Galaxy Project 25.0.2.dev0 documentation](https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/jobs.html)

With the full resources at:

> [@Private Galaxy Servers](https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/private-galaxy-servers/10861/1):

> 💻 Local Galaxy

> - Training Network [Galaxy server administration training](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/admin/)
> - Technical Documentation [Galaxy releases, plus Admin and Development docs](https://docs.galaxyproject.org)
> - Open-source code base [GalaxyProject Github repositories](https://github.com/galaxyproject)
> - galaxyproject/admins chat at [https://matrix.to/#/#galaxyproject\_admins:gitter.im](https://matrix.to/#/#galaxyproject_admins:gitter.im)
> - galaxyproject/admins dev at [https://matrix.to/#/#galaxyproject\_dev:gitter.im](https://matrix.to/#/#galaxyproject_dev:gitter.im)

Please give those a review and come back here with questions as you work through the process! In short, you will be defining each job destination then grouping/assigning tools to route to those destinations based on rules you set. The resources above include examples.

Let’s start there! 🙂
