If you attempt to set up the execution environment (start information) while the JP1/Script service is not running, a dialog box containing the following error message appears:
The operation could not be performed because the JP1/Script service is not running. Launch the JP1/Script service, and then re-execute the operation.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Components
In the Set Execution Environment (Start Information) dialog box, you can set the following items for the script file(s) you selected.
- Script file name
-
Lists the name of the files (icons) that you selected in the Script Manager window. If you selected multiple icons, the file names are sorted in ascending order.
- Command line
-
Enter the run-time command line. You can specify a parameter, and whether to output a trace file and event log.
If you click the Set button, the Set Command Line dialog box appears. For details, see 6.2 Rules for writing command lines.
- Working folder
-
Enter the current drive or folder for script execution.
If you click the Select button, the Select Folder dialog box appears.
If you do not specify a folder, the folder containing the script file is selected.
- Start information
-
Specify the target space where the script is to be started automatically. If no day of week, day, or time is set, the script is started at the following time:
Logon: When the OS is logged on
Service: When the power is turned on
If the OS is not logged on, the script is not started even when the target is logged on and a day of week, day, or time has been set.
- Permit multi-activation
-
Select this check box to allow multiple copies of the same script to be executed concurrently.
There is no limit to the number of multiple executions; however, as the number of concurrent executions increases, the amount of required system resources also increases. You should pay attention to the number of scripts that are executed concurrently.
When multiple execution is enabled, traces are output to the folder specified in Trace file output folder in the Options (Multi-activation) dialog box, not the folder specified in the Set Execution Environment (Trace Information) dialog box. For further details, see 4.1.25 Options (Multi-activation) dialog box.
You cannot specify the trace file output folder for each script file. Therefore, if you specify Permit multi-activation for a script file, for each concurrent execution of that script, analysis trace files and execution trace files that have the same name are output to the same folder.
