There was an event handling mechanism that works as an add on to the JobScheduler. Event handler determines on which condition what jobs should be started. Now this "Job Streams" feature adds a capability to the product which allows graphical configuration of job dependencies.This feature is provided by a JobScheduler Plugin <plugin java_class="com.sos.eventhandlerservice.plugin.SOSConditionsPlugin"/> .The plugin <plugin java_class="com.sos.eventhandlerservice.plugin.SOSConditionsPlugin"/> should be enabled to use Job Streams functionality.
There are two ways by which Job Streams functionality can be enabled:
- At the time of installation
- Manually adding the plugin
How to enable Job Streams Functionality at the time of installation?
To enable Job Streams functionality at the time of installation you just need to Enable Conditions-Plugin via a checkbox at Step 9 of the installation process.
How to enable Job Streams Functionality after installation?
The scheduler.xml of JobScheduler can be used to enable the Job Streams functionality after the installation of JobScheduler.
Follow the following steps:
