Specifies the target on which to run the operator. A target can be a touchpoint, touchpoint group, Agent ID, proxy touchpoint, IP address, or FQDN. Be sure that you enable the category for the operator on the touchpoint. To open the Object Browser dialog and select a touchpoint, click Select.
Specifies the target using an expression. To specify a target dynamically at runtime, use a calculated expression. Consider the following examples:
Important! When a process is destined for an import as a content package, specify the IP address or FQDN in a dataset. A dataset can be modified in the import environment, but the Target field cannot.
Specifies how to resolve the target name.
Specifies that the Target field contains a host name or IP address that a host group references.
Note: If the Target field contains touchpoint, a proxy touchpoint, or an agent ID, the execution fails.
Specifies that the Target field contains the name of a touchpoint, a proxy touchpoint, or an agent ID.
Note: If the Target field contains a valid host group reference, the processing succeeds but it is not optimized.
CA Process Automation lets you loop an operator until some condition is met. The Loop property specifies the number of times that an operator repeats.
The exit conditions and the connecting links from the operator that is running in a loop are evaluated only when the loop completes.
Note: For more detailed information about using loops in CA Process Automation, see the Content Designer Guide.
Specifies the condition for looping. Two options are available:
When selected, Repeat Count is ignored and an infinite loop is created. The operator keeps repeating until either:
Specifies the delay in seconds between each loop iteration (the default value is 0).
Lets you set a timeout as part of every operator. If the operator does not finish by the specified time, this setting provides an exit strategy. The Timeout option provides the choice to either:
Specifies that the operator has no timeout. This check box is selected by default.
Select either Duration or Target Date.
Enter a timeout duration in seconds.
The proper format for this field is anything that can be treated as an integer/long, or string literals (for example,"10").
The timeout is specific to each iteration of a loop. Therefore, a timeout occurs only if a single iteration takes longer than the timeout duration.
Enter a date and time when you want the operator to time out.
When a string literal is entered in this field, it can be in one of the following formats:
If Target is selected as the Type, the Reset option (under Action) is disabled.
Note: Be sure to enter this data in the proper format or else the operator ignores these timeout settings.
Notes:
Select from one of the following actions:
If selected, the process proceeds in the following manner after a timeout:
1. The operator remains in running mode only.
2. The timeout path is taken.
3. The post-execution code only runs when the operator completes, not when the timeout path was taken.
If selected, the process proceeds in the following manner after a timeout:
1. The operator is reset (that is, the operator starts executing again).
2. The timeout path is taken.
3. The post-execution code executes only if the operator completes (not when the operator was reset).
Note: If Reset is selected, then the Target Date option is disabled in the Type drop-down list.
If selected, the process proceeds in the following manner after a timeout:
1. The operator aborts.
2. The post-execution code executes.
3. The timeout path is taken.
If selected, the process proceeds in the following manner after a timeout:
1. The operator times out.
2. The process continues to run in detached mode.
Note: An instance of a process started in detached mode has no parent relationship to the process that started it. A detached process instance is the root process in any call sequence originating from that process.
3. The post-execution code executes immediately.
4. The timeout path is taken.
