Job Container Options

Container or Job Container page allows you to specify the container job options as necessary. Enterprise Manager and Domain Manager include these options on the Container page and the Job Container Page respectively.

Distribution Job Container

(Only on Enterprise Manager) Specifies the name of the Distribution Job Container. Select an appropriate name from the drop-down list.

(Only on Domain Manager) Specifies the name of the Job Container. Enter an appropriate job container name.

Name

Specifies the Name of the Job Container for deployment.

Priority

(Optional) Specifies the deployment priority of the package.

User Message

Lets you enter a message for the user.

Job Linkage

Defines the links between the jobs.

Batch Job Execution

Lets you execute the deployment job in a batch process. For each target, all jobs in the container are run as a single piece of work. If a job fails for any target, the remaining jobs in the container for that target are aborted. Batch jobs constitute a critical region; no other jobs are allowed to come in between them. The batch jobs are important as an unrelated job causes the problems with the target and can fail the rollback. The batch jobs must have the same activation time.

Enable transaction

Allows you to manage jobs during evaluation and execution. When one job in the container fails, the remaining jobs in the batch will not execute. When the Enable Transaction check box is selected, jobs for SXP, PKG, and PIF packages are rolled-back in case of failure. Upon a failure, all previous jobs in the container for that target are rolled back, if possible.

Synchronized Job Execution

The job is activated only when the previous job in the container is completed correctly.

No Linkage

Lets you run Jobs independently from each other.

Ignore cascading

Ignores cascading install of dependent packages. This box appears disabled, if No Linkage is selected as cascading is of no importance with the No linkage selection).

Seal and Evaluate Job Container

(Only on Domain Manager)Lets you seal a job container and evaluate the jobs in the container.

Activate Job Container

(Only on Domain Manager)Lets you activate the jobs in the container.

Distribute and register software packages at the Domains.
