DSXchange

I created a job which purpose it is to call an underlying job n times (in a loop). I did this within the job control section of the job properties. This mechanism works fine, except if the underlying job aborts, because then the controlling job stops too.

Now I want to ensure that my controlling job calls the underlying job again (with different parameters)

I tried to use the RUNRESET instead of RUNNORMAL to call the underlying job, but then I got an errormessage stating that the underlying job had never been run.

So the question is : which statements should I include in the jobcontrol so that if the called job aborts, it can be called again (with different parameters) in the next iteration of the loop.

You might want to post your code so you can get specific help. But, as a general comment, after you attach to the job you can call DSPrepareJob before you run it and that will reset the job if it needs it.

I would lay a bet on that the poster has not detached the current job handle and re-attached a new handle. You need a new handle for every run, and must detach the old if you want to RESET the job.

Both suggestions worked. :D
Thanks!
