The HA for PeopleSoft process scheduler data service manages the start, shutdown, and fault monitoring of a specific process scheduler domain.
The HA for PeopleSoft process scheduler performs the following tasks:
Supports the PeopleSoft application environment – Run batch certain processes (such as batch programs and reports) behind the scenes of the online system. Examples of processes that run offline include running reports, posting journal entries, loading benefit enrollment forms, or calculating payroll deductions.
Schedules and manages the execution of PeopleSoft batch processes – Schedule recurring processes to run on a specific date or at a specific time interval. You can also create jobs that run several processes and then schedule successive processes based on the status of a previous process.
Enables load balancing – Set up a Master Scheduler server, which enables workload balancing by automatically routing requests to available Process Scheduler servers. The feature also provides fault tolerance in a batch environment.
The following table lists the tasks for configuring the HA for PeopleSoft process scheduler data service and provides links to detailed instructions for performing these tasks. Perform the tasks in the order that they are listed in the table.
