How to get job status in a sequence

Hi

I have a sequence in which multiple jobs will be executed. At one point i have to execute 2 jobs based on the success of other job and if both get finished then move forward with new job execution, if any one fails, sequence has to stop.

Code: Select all

Sequence 1:

Job1 -->Cmd-->job2-->Job3---------                           /job7
                         |                  |  --  Job5--->job6
                        job4--------                          \job8

In the above example job5 has to execute only if Job3 and job4 is done.Even job3 or job 4 finished early, job 5 has to wait for other job to finish and then move forward.

Place a Sequencer into the sequence. Job3 and Job4 both feed into the Sequencer, and its output feeds into Job5. Set the Sequencer mode to "All" (all inputs must have fired before its output triggers).

That and make sure the trigger expressions coming into the Sequencer are both set to 'Finished OK'.

... only if that's your requirement. If all they have to be is finished (whether with or without warnings, successfully or otherwise) use an unconditional trigger.

Well... was working off the "if any one fails" comment. Still, bottom line, use appropriate triggers to control the flow from each job to the Sequencer based on your requirement.
