Mode Of Operation

The SOSSSHJob2JSAdapter can run with either the Trilead implementation (default) or the JSch implementation by JCraft.

The JSch implementation for SSH connections SOSSSHJob2JSAdapterJSch uses the JSch implementation from JCraft for SSH connections and adds the use of return values to the already existing functionality of the SOSSSHJob2JSAdapter class.

To use the JSch implementation you have to configure the following parameter in the params section of the scheduler.xml.

<param name="jitl.ssh.use_jsch_impl" value="true"/>

The Job sets an environment variable to the session on the remote host with the name SCHEDULER_RETURN_VALUES which is available for the script or command to be executed on the remote machine. The value (the name of the temporary file) for this environment variable will be generated at runtime. After the execution of the script or command the jobs reads the return values from that temporary file on the remote host, returns them to the Jobscheduler for further processing and deletes the temporary file afterwards.
