When you want to let an order wait until an order in another job chain has passed successfully a specific node, you can use the sync job. Here are some use cases:

1. two or more job chains. One order in In every job chain is one order. The order can proceed, when they are all on a specific node in their chain.
2. Like 1. but now, you want to wait for more than one order.
3. You have job chains A,B,C. C can start, when A or B are finished.

1. two or more job chains. One order in every job chain. The order can proceed, when they are all on a specific node in their chain.

1. create a job "SynchroniseJobChains" named "SynchronizeJobChainssync" with using the job wizzard wizard in JoeJOE.

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

 <job title="Synchronize Job Chains" order="yes">
    <script language="java"
    java_class="sos.scheduler.job.JobSchedulerSynchronizeJobChains"/>
 </job>

1. create a node before the node, you want to wait. Assign the just created job to this node
2. create a node after the node, you want to wait for. Assign the just created job to this node

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

 <job_chain>
    <job_chain_node state="100"
                    job="jobsSample_1"
                    next_state="sync"
                    error_state="error"/>
    <job_chain_node state="sync"
                    job="Sync"
                    next_state="200"
                    error_state="error"/>
    <job_chain_node state="200"
                    job="jobsSample_3"
                    next_state="success"/>
    <job_chain_node state="success"/>
    <job_chain_node state="error"/>
 </job_chain>

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
 <job_chain>
    <job_chain_node state="100"
                    job="jobsSample_2"
                    next_state="sync"
                    error_state="error"/>
    <job_chain_node state="sync"
                    job="Sync"
                    next_state="success"
                    error_state="error"/>
    <job_chain_node state="success"/>
    <job_chain_node state="error"/>
 </job_chain>

1. Same steps as at 1.
2. You can specify for each job chain, how many orders have to be at the sync point to set the node to GO. Note: If you want to specify it for different nodes, you can use parameter [job_chain];[state]_required_orders

...

 <job title="Synchronize Job Chains"
     order="yes">
    <params>
        <param name="job_chain1_required_orders" value="3"/>
        <param name="job_chain2_required_orders" value="1"/>
    </params>
    <script language="java"
            java_class="sos.scheduler.job.JobSchedulerSynchronizeJobChains"/>
 </job>

3. You have job chains A,B ,and C. C can start, when A or B are finished.

specify parameter minimumSyncHits=1.

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

 <job title="Synchronize Job Chains"
     order="yes">
    <params>
        <param name="minimumSyncHits" value="1"/>
    </params>
    <script language="java"
            java_class="sos.scheduler.job.JobSchedulerSynchronizeJobChains"/>
 </job>
