A simple way to reduce the number of jobs or job chains for shell scripts is to use a generic job, job chain and orders:

Code Block
languagexml
titleExample Job (Windows)
  <job order="yes"
       stop_on_error="no"
       title="This job is a example showing the generic execution of a shell script or a shell command">
      <script language="shell">
          <![CDATA[
  echo %SCHEDULER_PARAM_SCRIPT2EXECUTE%
  %SCHEDULER_PARAM_SCRIPT2EXECUTE%
          ]]>
      </script>
      <run_time/>
  </job>

This job will execute a script or a command that is specfied with the parameter Script2Execute.

Adding this job to a job chain like this:

Code Block
languagexml
titleExample Job Chain
  <job_chain orders_recoverable="yes"
             visible="yes"
             title="ShellExecutor: generic execution of a shell script or shell command">
      <job_chain_node state="Step.100"
                      job="GenericShellExecutor"
                      next_state="success"
                      error_state="error"/>
      <job_chain_node state="success"/>
      <job_chain_node state="error"/>
  </job_chain>

will start this job every time an order for the job chain is scheduled like this:

Code Block
languagexml
titleExample for Order
  <order>
      <params>
          <param name="Script2Execute"
                 value="dir c:\temp"/>
      </params>
      <run_time let_run="no"/>
  </order>
