User Parameters in Shell-Scripts


Job parameter and order params are accessible by the use of environment variables. There is a name convention. The name of the environment variable according to a parameter is SCHEDULER_PARAM_NAMEOFPARAM. For example the job parameter param1 is available by the environment variable SCHEDULER_PARAM_PARAM1.

Sample

 <job>
    <params>
        <param name="param1"  value="Test"/>
    </params>
    <script language="shell">
        <![CDATA[
 rem This is a sample shell script to demonstrate the use of parameters
 echo Param1 has the value %scheduler_param_param1%
        ]]>
    </script>
    <run_time/>
 </job>

for Linux

 <job>
    <params>
        <param name="param1" value="Test"/>
    </params>
    <script language="shell">
        <![CDATA[
 # This is a sample shell script to demonstrate the use of parameters
 echo Param1 has the value $SCHEDULER_PARAM_PARAM1
        ]]>
    </script>
    <run_time/>
 </job

Setting Parameter in Shell-Scripts and put them to the next node in job chains.


At every change of status in job chains Job Scheduler parses a temporary file for name value pairs. Thes name value pairs will be set as order params. The name of the temporary file is availabe with the environment variable SCHEDULER_RETURN_VALUES.

    </params>
    <script language="shell">
        <![CDATA[
 rem This is a sample shell script to demonstrate the use of parameters 
 echo newParam=a sample value >> %scheduler_return_values%
        ]]>
    </script>
    <run_time/>
