Excerpt

The JobScheduler's unique job and order concept includes the use organization of jobs within into job chains with and the use of dependencies.

  • Jobs are the basic unit for the processing of executable files
, job chains
  • (programs, scripts, commands etc.).
  • Job Chains can be seen as an assembly line on which
multiple
  • a number of job nodes are passed sequentially.
  • Orders represent triggers that will cause a job chain to be started according to calendar events.

Jobs

  • Jobs are the basic unit for the processing of executable files, shell scripts, procedures and of job implementations based on the JobScheduler internal API.
  • Jobs can be executed independently from one another. However, job starts can also be made dependent on the execution result (success, failure, exit code) of preceding jobs.
  • Jobs can be executed in parallel by a configurable number of tasks.

Orders

  • Workflow is regulated by orders. An order can be thought of as a directive which is processed in a chain of jobs. An order is assigned to a job chain with an identifier which is valid for that particular job chain. The order also has a status which changes after the processing of each job node and can have a payload of parameters.
  • Orders are persistently stored during processing. This means that if a job is stopped during processing and then restarted, it will be continued at exactly the point where it was stopped.
