Exclusive Resources

[RaviKiranCH]

Hi All,

Can any one of you give a suggestion that a Exclusive Resource can be given for one or more jobs..

Example:

JOB - A & JOB - B & JOB - C should run in serial.

These 3 are adhoc jobs. User may select or may not select the jobs..

How Can I run the jobs serially.

hi RaviKiranCH,

some question:

- You want to be able to launch every job separately but if you want to launch Job A and Job B they must run with this order A-B???

- The launch request can arrive from more than one user that are not strictly collegue??? (ie If I launch Job A is possible that other user are launching Job B without my knowing)

Best Regards

Hi Giuseppe,

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry for not cleary mentioning the actual requirement.

Here is the one what I need..

1)Pre-processing job > Landing job
2)Pre-processing job > Landing job

1) & 2) CAN RUN IN PARALLEL

3)Staging job > Warehouse job
4)Staging job > Warehouse job

3) & 4) SHOULD RUN IN SERIAL

5)Post-processing job
6)Post-processing job

5) & 6) CAN RUN IN PARALLEL.

The Job sequence is

1) ---> 3) ----> 5)

2) ----> 4) ----> 6)

Now kindly suggest me how to implement this..?

ok now I've understand

JOB3 & JOB4 must have an Exclusive Resource!

In the Job Create/Edit windows, in the fifth sheet called "Resources" you must insert an Exclusive Resource.

On the right you have "Control Resources:" with two columns "Name" & "Exclusive"

Insert a name (ie JOB3-4) and flag the square in the exclusive column

Make the same configuration on JOB 3 & JOB 4.

Be attention, the Exclusive Resource Name must be the same.

Best Regards
