Can User Variable Activity be Checkpointed?

Post by Azzuri »

There isn't a checkbox to indicate whether the activity can be checkpointed. I want the UserVariable Activity to be executed each time on a re-run (It's a restartable job). Any Ideas? It current skips the activity when restarting.

You mean there's no option to "do not checkpoint"... and you'd have to ask IBM why that is the case.

You just have to look at the abysmal way the GUI was written to answer that. How many other grids have you ever encountered with zero rows and you have to right click to create a row before you can use the grid?
