capturing warning messages in my sequencer

studyguy2001 · Post by **studyguy2001** » Wed Mar 30, 2005 5:34 pm

hello.,

someone please adivce me on this.

.I have job sequencer to run and each sequence inturn has multiple jobs.If a job fails , the sequence aborts....when there is a warning it just moves to run the next job in the sequencer

i dont want to go to each and every logfile to find if there are any warnings....I wanted to find a way to capture these warning messages ONLY, instead of checking the logs.Is there a way to capture these warnings when all the sequences are run?

Just for info the sequncer is success. Just have to find a way to fix the warnings in the jobs.instead of getting all the details about all the jobs ( in the log file),can I only get the warning messages e-mailed or capture in a dataset.
i prefer capturing those warning only in dataset or a peek instead of email.

so please advice me on this.,
thanks

This has been covered a lot. The field you want is called SEVERITY. Do a search for RT_LOG.

Set up another output link from the job activity. Trigger it for warnings. Invoke a Routine activity. Create a Routine that takes the job name as its argument and retrieves the warning message(s) from the job log (using DSGetNewestLogID and DSGetLogEntry functions and writes them to a text file. Append that file to email messages, and so on.

Hi,
There is also the DSGetLogSummary() that can give all warnings from the log.
this could be run after any job finishes write to a file and attach in a notification activity.
might be implemented in an after routine.
just for saving the trouble of coding each job with warning captures .

IHTH,
