Commands

  • export
    • Allows to export scheduling objects such as workflows to an archive file in .zip or .tar.gz format. The command comes in two flavors:
      • export individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • export objects from folders using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
        • Optionally the object type is specified and otherwise all objects will be exported.
    • The archive file is specified from the --file and --format options.
  • import
    • Imports an archive file to the inventory.
    • Users can specify if existing objects will be overwritten or if duplicate objects from the import file will be assigned a prefix or suffix or will be ignored.
  • import-deploy
    • Imports an archive file to the inventory and deploys the included objects. The operation is applicable if JOC Cockpit is operated for the high security level.
      • As a prerequisite the archive file must have been exported using the --for-signing switch.
      • Workflows and Job Resources from the archive file have been digitally signed by the user. Signature files have been added to the archive file.
    • On import the objects in the archive file are deployed to related Controllers as specified during export.
  • deploy
    • Allows to deploy objects such as workflows. The command can be used in two flavors:
      • deploy individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • deploy objects from folders using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
    • Deletion of objects from a Controller is considered similar a deplyoment operation.
  • revoke
    • Allows to undeploy objects such as workflows. The command can be used in two flavors:
      • revoke individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • revoke objects from folders using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
    • Revoking objects deletes them from the Controller and Agents, objects remain in draft status in the inventory.
  • release
    • Allows to release objects such as schedules. The command can be used in two flavors:
      • release
    export
    • Allows to export scheduling objects such as workflows to an archive file in .zip or .tar.gz format. The command comes in two flavors:

      • Optionally the object type is specified and otherwise all objects will be exported.
    • The archive file is specified from the --file and --format options.

    • Imports an archive file to the inventory.
    • Users can specify if existing objects will be overwritten or if duplicate objects from the import file will be assigned a prefix or suffix or will be ignored.
  • import-deploy
    • Imports an archive file to the inventory and deploys the included objects. The operation is applicable if JOC Cockpit is operated for the high security level.
      • As a prerequisite the archive file must have been exported using the --for-signing switch.
      • Workflows and Job Resources from the archive file have been digitally signed by the user. Signature files have been added to the archive file.

    • Allows to deploy objects such as workflows. The command can be used in two flavors:
      • deploy individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • deploy objects from folders using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
    • Deletion of objects from a Controller is considered similar a deplyoment operation.
    • Revocation of objects is considered similar to a release operation.
  • recall
    • Allows to unrelease objects such as schedules. The command can be used in two flavors:
      • revoke individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • revoke objects from folders using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
    • Recalling objects deactivates them from further use, objects remain in draft status in the inventory.

    • Allows to store an object such as a workflow from a file to the inventory.
      • The --file option specifies the file that holds the JSON representation of an object.
      • The --type option specifies the object type. 
      • The --path option specifies the folders and object name of the objects inventory location.

      • release remove individual objects specified by the --path and --type options.
      • release remove objects from folders recursively using the --folder option and --recursive switch.
    • Revocation of objects is considered similar to a release operationRemoving objects moves them to the trash from which they can be deleted or restored.
