      • shuts down any instances that are possibly running
      • removes the installation
• Sync: Wait until all prerequisites have been checked and all instances shut down.

• TransferInstallationSetup: Transfer Transfers the installer files to the host
  
  • Before the transfer starts, the preprocessor will create the instance start script from the template jobscheduler_agent_instance_script.txt

  • The files that are to be transferred are specified with the <globals><transfer><file_spec=".*\.(sh|gz)$"> configuration element

    • This regular expression causes the following files to be transferred:
      
      • the JobScheduler Universal Agent installer files: jobscheduler_unix_universal_agent.<version>.tar.gz
      • the instance start script: jobscheduler_agent_<port>.sh
      • the installation script: jobscheduler_universal_agent_install.sh
• PerformInstall: Start Starts the installation using SSH.
  • The step before transferred installation script will be executed
  • The installation script installs and starts the JobScheduler Universal Agent
  • Finally the post-processing commands will be executed
    • The post-processing commands are specified with the <installation><postprocessing><command> element

    • Three commands will be executed:
      
      • if you require additional commands, please add the call in the PerformInstall job

    • The default commands set up the autostart for JobScheduler Universal Agent on a Linux server (Ubuntu distribution)
      
      • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S cp ${install_path}/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh /etc/init.d/jobscheduler
      • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S update-rc.d jobscheduler defaults
