A resource manager manages processing and other resources of schedulers of one or more processes executing on one or more computer systems. For each scheduler, the resource manager determines an initial allocation of resources based on the policy of the scheduler, the availability of resources, and the policies of other schedulers. The resource manager receives feedback from the schedulers and dynamically changes the allocation of resources of schedulers based on the feedback. The resource manager determines if changes improved the performance of schedulers and commits or rolls back the changes based on the determination.
