Introduction

Excerpt

The JOC Cockpit Runtime Cockpit Run-time Editor has been introduced to simplify changing Job and Order runtimes and is intended to follow natural language making temporary changes to Job and Order start times by adding Run-Times or selecting Schedules. When editing Run-Times the editor follows configuration terms such as, "Execute a order an Order every Monday at 09:00" or execute "Execute a job Job every 1st and 2nd Monday of the month".

...

Relation between Run-Times and Schedules

Jobs and orders Orders can either be started using the JOC Cockpit according to runtime or schedule parameters Run-Times or Schedules but not both:

  • Runtimes Run-Times are job Job or orderOrder-specific - i.e. they are properties of a particular job Order or orderstandalone Job.
  • Schedules are specified independently of the jobs Jobs or orders Orders they are used for and can therefore be more used flexibly and more efficiently, particularly in environments where there are large numbers of regularly running jobs and orders. Schedules are configured in the JOE Editor but can be specified for Jobs and Orders in the JOC Cockpit.that run regularly. 

The JOC Cockpit Runtime Run-Time Editor can be used to configure runtimes Run-Times and specify schedules Schedules but selection of a schedule Schedule for a job Job or order Order that already has a runtime Run-Time - as shown in the screenshot below - will cause the runtime run-time to be deleted and vice-versa.

Info
titleCaution
Runtimes set
  • Run-times set for an object in the JOC Cockpit
will not be shown in the JobScheduler Object Editor, JOE.

The Runtime Editor can be used to modify an existing runtime configuration or to add an additional runtime. For example, consider the situation where an order is to run every day at 12:00, Fridays at 16:00 and at 22:00 on the last day of the month.

  • are intended as temporary configuration that overrides configurations saved on the file system.
  • Run-times set for an object in the JOC Cockpit are not written to the file system but are saved in the JobScheduler's own memory: they are not visible on the file system.
  • Run-times set for an object in the JOC Cockpit are persistent - they remain active after a restart of the JobScheduler.
  • They can be overwritten by changes to files on the file system.

Deleting Run-times and Schedules

Two functions are available for deleting individual Run-times and deleting Schedules that have been set in the JOC Cockpit:

  • Set Run-time:
    • This function opens a modal window that allows Run-times or Schedules set in the JOC Cockpit to be deleted and new ones configured as required. When all Run-times or Schedules configured for a Job or Order are deleted with this function any Run-time or Schedule configured on the file system will not be (re)activated.
  • Reset Run-time:
    • This function opens a modal window that allows Run-times or Schedules set in the JOC Cockpit to be removed and any Run-time or Schedule configured on the file system to be (re)activated if all the Run-times or Schedules configured in the JOC Cockpit are deleted.

Both functions can be reached from additional Options menus as shown, for example, in the screenshot below, which shows an Order in the Job Chains view:
