How I add environment variables?

How can i add environment variables to JobScheduler?
The commandline option -env=var_name=var_value adds an environment variable to the Job Scheduler.
This variable is only in the scope of the Job Scheduler established.
If a variable var_name already exists in the user environment then the value of the -env option wins.
A windows service of the Job Scheduler reads only the system and user environment if it has the corresponding user account.

The environment variables can be used for substitutions (see Job Scheduler Reference Documentation).

Startscript with -env

Sample for starting the Job Scheduler with the variable hellh1. world:

 unix-shell>[install_path]/bin/jobscheduler.sh start -env="hello=world" 
 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd start -env="hello=world"

Edit jobscheduler_environment_variables.(sh|cmd) file

If you always want to start the Job Scheduler with additional environment variables then you can edit the SCHEDULER_PARAMS variable in the install_path/bin/jobscheduler_environment_variables.(sh|cmd) file. Then it is not necessary to call the above startscript with the -env option.

Sample snippet of install_path/bin/jobscheduler_environment_variables.(sh|cmd) for adding the variable helloworld:

 ...
 # unix sample
 SCHEDULER_PARAMS="... \"-env=hello=world\" ..."
 ...
 rem windows sample
 set SCHEDULER_PARAMS=... -env="hello=world" ...
 ...

Windows Service

A windows service starts the Job Scheduler always with that options which it is installed. After the windows Job Scheduler setup a service is already installed so that it must be reinstalled with additional environment variables.

For this close the services dialog (services.msc) if necessary and ...

• stop the Job Scheduler if necessary

 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd stop

• remove the Job Scheduler service

 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd remove

• install the Job Scheduler service with -env option or edit the jobscheduler_environment_variables.cmd file like above

 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd install -env=hello=world
 ...or...
 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd install

• start the Job Scheduler service

 windows-shell>[install_path]\bin\jobscheduler.cmd start_service
