Legacy jobs use pipelines that a developer creates using the UX Studio plug-in to the
Eclipse IDE. This functionality is deprecated. We recommend creating jobs using the new job
framework.
To complete this procedure, you must know:
- Pipeline and start node for the job.
- Parameters required for the pipeline.
- System objects updated during job execution.
For jobs defined for the entire Organization, the cartridge containing the pipeline
must be included in the cartridge path for the Business Manager Site. Go to. For jobs defined for a site, the cartridge containing the pipeline must
be included in the cartridge path for the site. Go to .
-
Select .
-
Click New.
-
Enter a name and description.
-
Specify the execution scope.
-
Enter the pipeline name and start node.
-
Enter a date for the job to run once, or specify a recurring interval.
-
Click Apply.
-
For jobs with a site execution scope, click Sites and
select one or more sites.
Jobs with a scope of multiple sites are split into one job per site at run
time. If one of the separate jobs fails, that job handles retries and failure
notifications individually. The separate jobs also appear separately in the job
history.
-
Click Resources.
-
Select the objects that the job changes or updates and then click
Assign.
Assigning a resource to the job protects that resource from being changed by
another job or user while it's being operated on by this job. For example, while
a job is updating the catalog, you don't want other jobs or users to change the
catalog, categories, or products.
-
To send or receive email notifications about job status, click
Notifications and configure email addresses and
notification settings.
-
If the job pipeline requires parameters, click
Parameters and enter the name and value for each
parameter.
