How to Submit Batch Jobs
Most batch jobs are submitted via a batch scheduler. For cloud customers, refer to the Batch Scheduler for Cloud Implementations topi in the Oracle Utilities Cloud Service Foundation documentation for more information. For on premises customers, refer to your third party scheduler documentation for more information.
Batch jobs may be configured as Timed, which means they will automatically be run based on the timer frequency.
You can manually submit your ad hoc background processes or submit a special run for one of your scheduled background processes using the online batch job submission portal.
- No parameter defaulting occurs when submitting a record using this script. All the desired parameter values must be provided.
- If the requested batch control is defined as part of a pool of batch controls using the Batch Group option then the batch job request is created for a batch control within the pool that has a low number of in progress requests. This technique allows for a more balanced load of submission requests across pool-based batch controls.
The script is also exposed as a REST web service (using the inbound web service F1-SubmitJob) to support batch job submission requests from an external system.
