Multiple Instance Job - Need help

Post by ag_ram »

All,
I created a parallel Job and made it as multiple instance Job. I need to run this Job twice in the single script. So, i gave like this

Code: Select all

... <jobName>.<scriptName>.1
... <jobName>.<scriptName>.2
But it is not accepting 1 or 2 instead being run twice with creating single log(for the latest call).
Is there anyway to get seperate logs for the Job. Please help ragarding this.

Did you re-compile after making it a multi-instance job?

Yes Ray,
I compiled the Job afetr making it as multiple instance Job. But logs I have here for is
... <jobName>.<scriptName>
no 1 or 2. Here i restate my query,
will the Invocation ID take the any special character(e.g:dot(.)) in its name to make an instance of the Job.
Ray, please clarify.

Hi,

I think u enabled "Allow multiple instance" option in Ds Designer.

and while running in Ds Director it asks name of instance u give .

for example if job name is sort then u can give sort.1,sort.2

it will work fine.

No, you cannot use a 'dot' in the InvocationID as it is the separator between the job name and the Id itself.
