How to run a task manually standalone, that is shown as part of a job chain?

Question:

How to run a task manually standalone, that is shown as part of a job chain?

Answer:

The short answer is: please copy your job, assign a new job name and omit the attribute order="yes". To save the hazzle of repeatedly typing the implementation you could include the same implementation in multiple jobs:

<job name="job_1">
  <script language="shell">
    <include file="my_shell_commands.cmd"/>
  </script>
</job>
              

The reason for this behaviour behavior is: You can run any jobs manually standalone if they are not part of a job chain (attribute order="no" or missing attribute). The JobSCheduler JobScheduler Operations Center interface offers the respective menu option to start such jobs. However, if a job is part of a job chain, then you would want the complete job chain to be passed through.
