Table 16. General Siebel Analytics Scheduler Job Properties
|
|
JobID |
Display-only field that becomes visible when choosing Jobs > View Job or Jobs > Modify Job. This field also appears in the Job List display in the right pane of the Job Manager window. After you add a job, this field displays an integer that uniquely identifies the job. The JobID cannot be changed. |
Name |
Short, descriptive name for the job. This field also appears in the Job List display in the right pane of the Job Manager window. |
Description |
Brief description of the job that describes its actions to end users. This field also appears in the Job List display in the right pane of the Job Manager window. |
UserID |
Required for all jobs. For jobs that communicate with Siebel Analytics Server or Siebel Analytics Web, UserID needs to be a valid Siebel Analytics user ID. This field also appears in the Job List display in the right pane of the Job Manager window. When this job runs, Siebel Analytics Scheduler executes it on behalf of the user ID specified in this field. |
Maximum Run Time MS |
Specifies the maximum number of milliseconds this job should run before it is canceled forcibly. If a job exceeds its run time, it fails with a time-out reason code. To prevent the job from timing out, set this field to 0 (zero). |
Last Run Time |
Display-only field that shows the last time this job began execution. This field also appears in the Job List display in the right pane of the Job Manager window. |
Next Run Time |
Display-only field that shows recurrent jobs and the next time this job executes. The trigger is used to determine this value. |
Running Instance Count |
Display-only field that shows the number of currently running instances of this job. |
Delete Job When Done |
When you select this option, Siebel Analytics Scheduler deletes the job after its last scheduled execution as defined by its trigger. When there is no next run time, the job is done. When a job is deleted, all instances are deleted as well. For most jobs, you should not select this option, because you can delete a job manually through the Job Manager. |
Disabled |
When you select this option, the job script does not execute when its trigger expires. However, the next run time is still updated according to the trigger settings. The Disabled field is useful when testing or debugging a new job because a Siebel administrator can quickly disable a job without losing all information. |
Execute When Missed |
If you select this option while the Scheduler is stopped (either all scheduling pauses or the Scheduler application stops), and if the job's next run time was missed, the job runs after Siebel Analytics Scheduler comes back up. If you do not select this option, the job executes at the its next run time, defined by its trigger. |
Delete Script When Job is Removed |
If you select this option, when a job is removed its associated job script is also removed. If many jobs reference the same job script, this option should not be set. |
Disable NQS Functions |
Disables the NQS Connect function in the job script. If a job script is not trusted by the Siebel administrator, the administrator can select this option to ensure that the user does not try to connect to Siebel Analytics Server by logging in as another user. In most cases, because security verification occurs through Siebel Analytics Web and the Server Administration Tool, or when the Siebel administrator adds jobs, this option does not need to be set. |
