Creating Job Suites

Use the Job Suites settings page to create new and edit existing job suites.

Note: If you want to use objects, such as tags, calendars, or date lists, you must configure those under theObjectsmenu before you set up your job suite.

The Job Suite settings page uses the following sections to define your job suite.

General Job Suite Settings

Use the General section to set basic information, including name, description, calendar, and tags.

Note: To select a different calendar, you must set it up before you create the job suite. SeeManaging Calendarsfor help on creating calendars.

Name: Provide a unique name for your job suite. Do not use spaces. Description: Provide a useful description for your job suite.

Calendar: Select the calendar to use with the job suite. Tags: Enter one or more tags for this job suite.

Skybot Variable Base Date: Select whether to use the member job's scheduled time or the job suite's scheduled time as the base date for the dynamic date Skybot variable calculation.

Scheduling the Job Suite

Use the Schedule section to set times for the job suite to run.

For this example, we'll create a basic Day of Week schedule (see detailed descriptions of each scheduling type). Select Day of Week, then click Add Schedule.

Creating Job Suites

This job suite runs on the last Friday of the month at 6:00 p.m. Click OK to save the schedule.

You can add multiple schedules to a job suite. For this example, let's add a second schedule that runs the same job suite every Wednesday at 5:00 a.m.

Click Add Schedule. Select Weekly from the Repeats drop-down list, select 5:00 as the time, and Wed as the day of the week to run.

Skip if running: Check this box so if the previous submission of the job suite is still active (running, on the queue, or checking conditions), it skips the next submission.

Generate history when skipping: Check this box so if thejob suite is skipped for any reason, Skybot Scheduler keeps a record of the instance.

Hold on Failure: Check this box so if the previous submission of the job suite fails, it holds the job.

Creating Exceptions to the Normal Schedule

Use the Schedule Exceptions section to create exceptions to the job suite's regular schedule.

For this example, we'll set the Run Time Range Allowed to allow the job suite to run only during non-office hours. Run Time Range Allowed: Set the From and To times to create the time range during which this job suite can run. Non-Working Days: Determine if this job suite should run on a non-working day, if it's schedule falls on one. You can:

Run the job suite on all days it's scheduled, regardless of whether or not it lands on a non-working day. Run the job suite only on working days. If the job suite is scheduled to run on a non-working day, it will be skipped.

Run the job suite on the preceding working day. This option runs the job suite on the last working day before it's scheduled run.

Run the job suite on the following working day. This option runs the job suite on the first working day after it's scheduled run.

Omit Date Lists: Click the drop-down list to select a date list. This gives you a list of dates on which the job suite will not run.

Handling Missed Run Times

Use the Missed Run Time Options section to set the action to perform when missed run times occur for the job suite. Manually manage all missed run times.

Creating Job Suites
