Sequencing Job

[krisna]

We have 5 jobs job1, job2, job3, job4, job5, here is the requirement job1, job2, job3, job4 needs to be sequenced for region1 and job1, job2, jo4, job5 needs to be sequenced for region2, what we have done is, we created 2 sequences for 2 regions. Please advice whether we can do it in 1 sequence for both regions, if possible, please suggest us how to go forward.
Thanks in advance

I don't see why not, just run the required jobs twice in the appropriate order (if any) for the two regions.

[Ravi.K]

Use loop Activity (Start Loop and End loop), pass required parameters for jobs accordingly between iterations.

[chulett]

I think that would unnecessarily complicate things, this sounds like a simple sequence to me. Worst case you could create a new Sequence job to run the other two.

[Ravi.K]

Ok, Noted.

[chulett]

That's mostly because of the different jobs that would need to run each iteration: 1,2,3,4 and then 1,2,4,5. Sure it could be done but they could also easily be strung together in a 'normal' sequence, be that in a serial fashion or with some parallelism.

Use Nested Condition activities to decide whether to execute jobs. Trigger these based on a job parameter value indicating the region.

Thanks for the suggestions, I am little bit confused here.

I shall put all the jobs in one sequence 1,2,3,4,5

if r1 then 1,2,3,4
else
1,2,4,5

how to achieve this using nested condition activity stage.
Please provide me an example to go ahead

Code: Select all

Job1 -> Job2 -> NC - Region1 -> Job3 -- Sequencer (Any) -> Job5
                 + - Region2 -> Job4 -- +

Thankyou very much Chulett & Roy for you valuble suggestions. Please enlighten me how to check the condition and execute the job3 and job4.
what I understood is

in nested condition
assumption that x is my job parameter
if x = 'region1' then ____________(what statement should i give here)
else
____________(what statment should i give here for regio)

or two nested condtions one for region 1 and other for region2. In those nested conditions what should be defined.
Thanks in Advance

There are no statements in a Nested Condition activity. All you need are the (Boolean) logical expressions. Use the expression editor to build your expressions, so that you get the syntax of the parameter reference correct. All you need in the expression is

Code: Select all

x = 'region1'
