Sequencer logic

[dnat]

Hi,

I have to run a sequencer for a set of files in a loop. So, i have the sequencer like this:-

Main sequencer:-
Start loop-->Job activity 1-->Job activity 2-->End loop

This sequencer loops for every file until all the files are processed.

Job activity 1 is a Job sequence which processes the data. Hence if this aborts while processing the file, it should trigger the Job Activity(which updates the table about the job status) and end loop until all the files are processed.

In Job activity 1, i have given the trigger as unconditional.

But, the problem is, if Job activity 1 aborts while processing the file, the whole sequencer aborts. Hence all the other files would not be processed until this error is rectified.My requirement is that the Job activity 2 should run after Job activity 1 even if it is aborted.

Can anyone help me in resolving this issue.

Sequencer logic is easy. The output fires if "Any" of its inputs fires, or if "All" of its inputs fire.

What you have there is a job sequence, not a sequencer.

Your problem is that the job sequence is doing exactly what you have asked it to do, by checking "automatically handle failure" and not including explicit failure handling for Job Activity 1 or an Exception Handler.

And what all are the error handling options you have set / checked in your job parameter tab?

In Job activity 1, i have given the trigger as unconditional.

But, the problem is, if Job activity 1 aborts while processing the file, the whole sequencer aborts.

I have unchecked the option "Automatically handle activities that fail" and now the job is running even if the job activity fails and goes into the next loop.
