Add checkpoint so sequence is restartable on failure

Post by thumsup9 »

Hi All,

I want to handle when a job activity fails or finished with warnings in a sequence. Though the checkbox is checked against "Add checkpoint so sequence is restartable on failure" , I know it needs the job to abort, to re run from the failure point. I do want rerun the jobs that have finished with warnings after fixing them.


Pls advice.

Thanks,
Thums

Design the job in such a way that it does not give out warnings. Capture rejects in a file. Utilize the email notification if the reject file size is greater than zero. You can also set the warning limit to 1. This way the job will abort even if you have a single warning.
