The Job Runner job step is used to enqueue for execution and customize the execution by overriding or providing parameters values to be used during execution but discarded afterwards.

 

This job step type extends basic job step functionality.  For details common to all job step types click here.

 

In addition to the common attributes shared by all job steps this job step type has the following attributes:

 

Target tab:

•Endpoint Name (Optional): The endpoint from the current application configuration file that describes the remote endpoint to connect to when firing jobs on different instances.  This value should not be configured if invoking jobs on agents in the current farm.

•User Name (Optional): The user name for accessing the remote endpoint. (Only needed if an endpoint name is provided.)

•Password (Optional): The password for accessing the remote endpoint. (Only needed if an endpoint name is provided.)

•Impeller: The name of the Remote impeller used to enqueue a job.  To be visible in this DropBox when pasPortal security is enabled the user editing the job must have Execute permission granted on the remote impeller.

Parameter Overrides tab:

•Parameter Overrides: The parameters collection allows the job creator to create or override the set of name/value pairs which may be accessed throughout job execution using the <PARAMETER> macro function.  These parameters will be applied after the impeller initializes the job but before the first step executes.

•Name: The parameter name.

•Value: The value of the parameter.

Parameter values set at the Job level may be overridden by parameter values set at the Impeller level.  Parameter values set at the Job or Impeller level may be overridden by parameter values set at the Parameter Editor job step level.  Parameter values set at this job step level will override all of the aforementioned parameters. The values will not be retained after the job has completed.
