Run an Extraction Job

UE extraction jobs are invoked from a command line using the WgnTask.exe utility. This enables you to schedule jobs to run at regular intervals. You configure extraction jobs with an XML job definition document called when you run an extraction job. The command syntax is:

WgnTask <job_file> [options]

where:

<job_file>

Is the path and file name for the XML job definition document. Available job parameters are listed in XML metadata extractor.

[options]

Can be:

-l

Sets the logging level. The supported logging levels are:

• 1 Errors only. This is the default level.
• 2 Errors and warnings.
• 3 Errors and warnings, plus informational and status messages.

-e

Displays error codes on-screen when an extraction job runs.

-v

Displays verbose (full detail) output on-screen when an extraction job runs.
