<execSubplan> Step

The <execSubplan> step executes another plan. The <execSubplan> step can only appear as the child of the <compositeSteps> element.

The <execSubplan> step has an optional child element, <argList>, which is a list of arguments to pass to the called plan. For each parameter in the <paramList> section of the called plan for which no default value is declared, a corresponding argument must be declared by this <argList>. See <argList> Element. If specified, this element can only appear one time.

Attributes for the <execSubplan> Step

The <execSubplan> step has the following attributes:

• planName – A required attribute of type entityName, which is the name of the plan to execute. When this step is run, a corresponding top-level <executionPlan> with this name must be specified. This name cannot reference an inline subplan.

• planPath – An optional attribute of type pathReference, which is the path of the plan to execute. If this attribute is omitted, the path of the containing plan is assumed.

• planVersion – An optional attribute of type Version, which is the version of the plan to execute. If this attribute is omitted, the latest version of the named plan is executed.
