BACKGROUND JOB-ISSUE

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

Iam having a issue in background job.

Iam having a job which runs on every 5 minutes.If work processes is free,the job runs fine without any issue.

In case of busy workprocesses sometimes job will be in ACTIVE mode for longer time and in that period the same job again released and gets in to ACTIVE mode since the time interval is very less(every 5min) and this makes the workprocesses further busy.

Is it possible to restrict the job to get released status(even though its scheduled for every 5 min) when the same job is in ACTIVE mode.

Hi,

I think it is not possible.

What i suggest here is to reduce the frequency of the job in the sense you have to increase the time stamp between the two schedules.

Dear

There are some workaround possibilities to prevent it.

Best solution would be that you make sure there are enough processes.

Another possibility is also setting the "no start after" in the job start condition, you just put that if the job is not launched within X times, it does not run. Then it will just run again at the next forseen timing (set by periodic properties).

Kind regards

Tom

Agree with them either reduce the job frequency or increase the ammount of processes.

Changing the starting condition of the job will just make them pile up and you'll find a big bottleneck.

Krishnan,

This is possible.

There is something called called STEPS /Conditions while the job is scheduled.

As already mentioned, please tell this problem to the basis guy. They should be able to solve this issue.
