Dependencies of job chains implemented by events
One of the methods to implement dependencies between job chains is using event handlers. Whenever an event is created an entry is made into the data base table scheduler_events. In the event handler the conditions are defined to add an order for the job chain to be startet.
...
Events are processed by a Job Scheduler Supervisor Instance. If the JobScheduler is not registered with a supervisor, the current JobScheduler Instance. This could be a Supervisor JobScheduler if a Workload JobScheduler is registered with that instance otherwise the Workload JobScheduler is used.
The events can be monitored with JID - JobScheduler Information Dashboard

Service
Before events can be used the event service has to be installed. It is part of the JobScheduler installation if ordered within the installation procedure.
...
The job chain scheduler_event_service is running in predetermined intervals or whenever an event is created and checks all .xml data files in folder $SCHEDULER_DATA/config/events for information matching the active events which are stored in the data base table . All job chains within the actual live folder may be concerned.
Event handler
The event handler is a .xml data file which contains the definitions of the events and the commands which are triggered .
...
Every event which is used in the condition has to be deleted from the database with the command remove event.
Handling events in jobs / job chains
As part of the JobScheduler installation there are some Java classes to handle events:
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventTaskAfterMonitor
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventMonitor can be configured as a monitor for (not shell-) jobs to submit an event.
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventMonitor can be configured as a monitor for (not shell-) jobs to submit an event.
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventJob
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventJob can be configured to submit an event.
- JobSchedulerSubmitEventJob can be configured to submit an event.
- JobSchedulerDequeueEventsJob
- Dequeues Events. This job is triggered by orders or by standard job starts.

- JobSchedulerExistsEventJob
- This job checks if certain event exists. The job processes orders which are configured with an event specification. Depending on whether these events exist or not the order will be put into the next_state or into the error_state.
