DS 7.5 has new capability to run sequencer from the Middle

Post by pras »

Hi All,

We have upgraded our DS from DS7 to DS 7.5.2.

In DS 7 earlier, If a sequencer is aborted in the middle , We used to trrigger the remaining jobs manually or restart the whole sequencer.

i want to know that wether "DS 7.5 has the new capability to run the sequencer from the middle". If yes please let me know how to proceed with that.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Pras

Yes It Does, search the forum for "checkpoint".
If you want the sequencer to run from the start , you will have to reset it , or else it will run from the first point of failure it encountered.

In the sequencer properties you will find the following option " Add checkponts so that sequencer is restartable on failure", you will need to set this property. In each of the individual jobs or routines that your sequencer calls, you have an option 'to set' or 'not to set' checkpoints.

HTH means 'Hope That Helps'. :wink:

You need to design 'checkpoints' or restartability into your jobs, there's no magic switch.
