Run Batch Task Group

This task is used to schedule a predefined set of batch tasks such as load measure, batch calc, and batch exports in a sequential order. The batch control file batch_exec_list.txt defines the steps in the specific order that will be executed during batch task execution. This task is used to schedule a typical daily or weekly MFP Cloud Service batch. The customer may need to use this only if they are not using JOS/POM to schedule their batch jobs. If they use the JOS/POM to schedule the daily or weekly batch jobs, they in turn call this pre-configured batch task

If any task aborts, a log is created and the process terminates. This task has the option to restart from the last failed service rather than running all the completed services again.

Note:

Typically, the Administrator must schedule this task within a time frame after a domain backup and when no users are logged into the domain because this task runs in domain exclusive mode. The Administrator must work with Oracle to find out the time of backups and any other jobs.

The following predefined batch sets are available:

  • Daily Batch (batch_daily)

  • Weekly Batch (batch_weekly)

  • Load Hierarchies (load_hier)

  • Export All Approved Plans (export_all)

  • Post Build Batch (postbuild)
