ESP Job flow based on Return Code

[Gunasekaran Loganathan]

I have been trying to set up a job flow processing based on the exit code returned by a Unix job. 

 

ESP Applictaion:

 

UNIX_JOB MAINJOB
REL (JOB1,JOB2)
RUN DAILY
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/SLEEP.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

SUN_JOB CONDJOB
RUN DAILY
EXITCODE 1 SUCCESS
RELEASE ADD(JOB1) COND(RC(0))
RELEASE ADD(JOB2) COND(RC(1))
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/FAILJOB.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

UNIX_JOB JOB1
RUN DAILY
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/SLEEP.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

UNIX_JOB JOB2
RUN DAILY
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/SLEEP.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

 

JOB1 or JOB2 should run after the MAINJOB and also either one of the jobs should execute based on the exit code of the CONDJOB. 

 

when the CONDJOB return code is '0' JOB1 should be executed and JOB2 should be bypassed.

when the CONDJOB return code is '1' JOB2 should be executed and JOB1 should be bypassed.

 

However, JOB2 is not bypassed or released when CONDJOB exit code is '1'.

 

LTJ CONDJOB I
JOB CONDJOB, MODEL MODEL1, OWNER NONE, 10 JOBS INDEXED, 10 MAX
JOB25483 ON RDR AT 14.29.33 WED 30AUG2017, COMPLETED, CC 1, 0.0 MINS_EXEC, 0:0

 

Job Name Job Qual ApplName Gen# Job Status Subappl Agent
CONDJOB PRDTEST 33 COMPLETED AT 14.29 30 AUG DCDED
JOB1 PRDTEST 33 WAITING, HC=1 DCDED --> Job is not released or bypassed. 
JOB2 PRDTEST 33 COMPLETED AT 14.29 30 AUG DCDED
MAINJOB PRDTEST 33 COMPLETED AT 14.29 30 AUG DCDED

 

LTJ CONDJOB I

JOB25483 ON RDR AT 14.29.33 WED 30AUG2017, COMPLETED, CC 1, 0.0 MINS_EXEC, 0:0

 

JOB JOB1

PREDECESSORS
MAINJOB(C)

Change the SUCCESS statement to include 0 

 

SUN_JOB CONDJOB

  RUN DAILY

  EXITCODE 0-1 SUCCESS

  RELEASE ADD(JOB1) COND(RC(0))

  RELEASE ADD(JOB2) COND(RC(1))

  SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/FAILJOB.txt

  AGENT %AGENT

ENDJOB

Hi Rick,

 

Included exit code '0' to the success list, still no luck.

 

UNIX_JOB CONDJOB --> Job ended with RC=1 
RUN DAILY
EXITCODE 0-1 SUCCESS
RELEASE ADD(JOB1) COND(RC(0))
RELEASE ADD(JOB2) COND(RC(1))
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/FAILJOB.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

 

Job Name Job Qual ApplName Gen# Job Status
CONDJOB PRDTEST 44 COMPLETED AT 15.19 30 AU
JOB1 PRDTEST 44 WAITING, HC=1
JOB2 PRDTEST 44 COMPLETED AT 15.19 30 AU
MAINJOB PRDTEST 44 COMPLETED AT 15.19 30 AU

Hi Guna, 

Below is my example that works. I did this a while ago.  In this case both legs release a single job. If I remember correctly that is what makes it work. 

 

UNIX_JOB JOBA
RUN ANY
AGENT AGENTU_01
USER espadmin
SCRIPTNAME /opt/scripts/testscripts/sleep.sh
ARGS 5 2
RELEASE ADD(JOBB) COND(RC(1))
RELEASE ADD(JOBC) COND(RC(2))
exitcode 1-2 success
ENDJOB

UNIX_JOB JOBB
RUN ANY
AGENT AGENTU_01
USER espadmin
SCRIPTNAME /opt/scripts/testscripts/sleep.sh
ARGS 300
exitcode 1-2 success
ENDJOB

 

UNIX_JOB JOBC
RUN ANY
AGENT AGENTU_01
USER espadmin
SCRIPTNAME /opt/scripts/testscripts/sleep.sh
ARGS 30
exitcode 1-2 success
RELEASE (JOBD)
ENDJOB

UNIX_JOB JOBD
RUN ANY
AGENT AGENTU_01
USER espadmin
SCRIPTNAME /opt/scripts/testscripts/sleep.sh
exitcode 1-2 success
ARGS 30
ENDJOB

I tried my example without the last dummy job and it worked.

Hi Don,

 

Thanks for the details, here in your sample code we could see JOBB & JOBC does not have any predecessor except JOBA. The same kind of setup works when I remove the "REL (JOB1,JOB2)" statement from the MAINJOB. However when another predecessor(MAINJOB) is added to the JOB1, JOB2 the job seems to stay on WAIT status. 

 

 Job Name Job Qual ApplName Gen# Job Status

MAINJOB PRDTEST 45 COMPLETED AT 15.42 30 AUG 
CONDJOB PRDTEST 45 COMPLETED AT 15.42 30 AUG
JOB1 PRDTEST 45 BYPASSED
JOB2 PRDTEST 45 COMPLETED AT 15.42 30 AUG

Hi Guna, 

I have the same issue if I schedule it this way...... I am still thinking... 

[powdo03]

NOTE:

I think the issue may be caused by the BYPASS/NOBYPASS option of the conditional release statement. The default is BYPASS until it hits an intersecting stream. BUT in this case the intersecting stream is right away. 

[powdo03]

This option could be done with REQUEST commands to request the job or stream of jobs. It is more complex and would need to be tested carefully.  The key to making this work is adding a reldelay in the next dummy job so the command has time to process.

Hi Don,

 

Do you mean adding a Link Process to be selected based on the return code of a CONDJOB and bypass selected jobs based on the exit code, 

[Rick Romanowski]

Change the RELEASE statement in MAINJOB to release CONDJOB

 

Current:

UNIX_JOB MAINJOB
REL (JOB1,JOB2)
RUN DAILY
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/SLEEP.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB

 

Proposed:

UNIX_JOB MAINJOB
REL (CONDJOB)
RUN DAILY
SCRIPTNAME /usr/local/espr11/bin/SLEEP.txt
AGENT %AGENT
ENDJOB
