Turn off the Compiler options you've turned on, that gives you explicit control over things. Then use the appropriate triggers to keep aborts from stopping things (Unconditional, for example) and perhaps a Terminator when it actually is time to shut things down. As noted, the problem will be restar...

How about it? Curious what my motivation would be to continue to help when honest attempts to do so get rated as 'Off-topic/Superfluous'? A little thin-skinned on my part, granted, but it's been one of those days. Sorry, I just tried this forum featured and accidentally click on the rate. I didn't ...

Not possible if you want the automatic checkpoint restart capability. You can make that happen with the proper triggers but then restarting it is on you as well. ... Yes,it's okay if it's not automatically restart from the checkpoint. but when I restart the sequence, I want it to restart from A whi...

So, by 'get aborted also' you actually mean 'do not run', yes? And if you truly want them to be independent, make them so - use two separate Sequence jobs. ... Yes, they do not run. and I want them to still running because they don't have any dependencies with the aborted job. actually this is not ...

Re: restart sequence from checkpoint without aborting other

But, the other problem which is raised is: my sequence will abort as soon as it reached the aborted job stage. Why is that? It should just restart the sequence from that point, reset the aborted job and go. What kind of 'abort' are we talking about here? Can you post the actual errors involved? :? ...
