4.1.3 Considering the linkage processing

It is necessary to define the processing for linking to cloud services as execution definitions. To define the processing, design the linkage processing as follows. For details on the definition items, see the description of the Execution definition window in 6. Operation.

  1. In Execution start processing, set the command line for executing linkage processing.

  2. In End confirmation processing, if the command in 1 is asynchronous and does not wait for the end, configure settings so that it waits until the end.

  3. In Post-processing (normal end), if it is necessary to collect the results of the executed service, configure the settings.

  4. In Post-processing (abnormal end), if it is necessary to suspend service execution if the command execution or end confirmation processing in 1 and 2 end abnormally, configure the settings.

In addition to the aforementioned design, it is necessary to consider the following, taking into account job operation in JP1/AJS3.

The following details these items.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Parameters to be changed dynamically

Parameters that are changed dynamically may be specified for service linkage jobs to be operated. Examples of such parameters include the following.

Define these items for JP1/AJS3 - View jobs. Define these in JP1/AJS3 - View jobs. Regarding the things to be specified on the side of the job, consider the settings in Variables settings.

In addition, design the authentication information used to connect to cloud services in units of job execution. Specify the authentication definition that is used during job definition in JP1/AJS3 - View.

(2) Judgment of result

Consider a judgment condition for the result of a job executed on the host of the connection-destination service. Define these judgment criteria in End confirmation processing. Consider whether it is possible to perform judgment based on the standard output of each command.

(3) Designing job output

Consider and design standard output for using the execution result of service linkage jobs for subsequence jobs and what to be output to the result details screen of JP1/AJS3 - View or JP1/AJS3 - Web Console. Define the design content for job output in Job output processing.

(4) Trace information design

Consider and design trace information that is checked on the result details screen of JP1/AJS3 - View or JP1/AJS3 - Web Console in the event of an abnormal end of service linkage job execution, or is stored in the log for troubleshooting. Define the design content for trace information in Trace information settings.
