Filewatcher job : Autosys

hidnana · #1 (**permalink**) 12-09-2008

I have filewatcher job that succeeds when the file it watches for arrives. But I want it ot fail if it watches for the file beyond a threshold time lmiti (say 1 hour).
Is there a way to acheive this ? Is there any attribute that would help ?

Presumably you have a loop that sleeps for a while and checks for the file, then sleeps for a while again if it is not there?

Just add a counter to the loop... and when that counter reaches a certain amount, exit the loop with an error message.

Hi,

there is an attribute term_run_time, in that if u set as
term_run_time: 60, after 60 min if the file was not there then it will fail.
