- to limit the number of processes that can start in parallel
- to run the job on a JobScheduler Agent
Limitation of simultaneously executed jobs
For example: you have two jobs which execute some database transactions.
The job setting allows each job to start 10 times in parallel.
...
If job1 is started for e.g. 8 times and job2 for 2 times then a further start of job1 or job2 is added to the Task Queue
and waits until one of the running tasks (8 x job1, 2 x job2) terminated.
Predefined process classes in ./config/scheduler.xml
If you open the file ./config/scheduler.xml then you will see three process classes.
...
- The nameless process class is used for all jobs that are not assigned a different process class.
- Therefore, all jobs that wouldn't use a different process class can run simultaneously in max. 30 tasks.
- You could increase this value if required.
Start jobs for a JobScheduler Agent
You can run a job in a JobScheduler Agent. For this functionality you have to configure a process class.
See How to configure a JobScheduler Master and Agent to work together for more information.
