If you have the Server edition you can only use the Server Shared Container :wink:

If you use server jobs use the Server Shared Container, if you use Parallel jobs use the Parallel Shared Container.

In theory there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is.

Mixing job types by placing server containers within a parallel job will cause a performance hit (when compared to a 'pure' parallel job) and should be avoided where possible.
