BODI Job Server configuration issue

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi All,

This is probably trivial but I cannot figure this out.

I am trying to configure the JOB SERVER on the server (Solaris).

After I enter the Oracle connection to the repository it gives an error:

Central repository is not allowed to associate with any Job Server. UNABLE to Update the repository.

(the produced log-file is empty).

Is there some setup somewhere I need to do before this works ?

Thanks for help, Timo

HI Ben Hofmans

Correct me if i'm wrong. but i'm pretty much sure that we can configure a Central Repo for Job Server thought we dont run jobs from Central Repo.

And we cannot login into designer with Central Repo's credintials then that would act as a local repo.

But It is possible to configure a job server for Central Repo.

svrcfg on Unix and Server Manager on windows, allowed adding central repo to Job Server in DI XI R2 (11.5)

from 11.7 onwards both svrcfg and Server Manger will throw an error

"Central repository is not allowed to associate with any Job Server"

what is the version that you are using

It looks like you are trying to link a Central Repository to a jobserver. This is not possible. Only Local Repositories can be linked to a jobserver.

A Central Repository is used in a multi-user environment for sharing objects and also as a version-control system, not to execute jobs.

If you accidentally created a Central Repo, you can use the repository manager to re-create it as a local repository. Be aware that this will erase all data in the Central Repo.
