Executing Projects

Executing Projects

Several methods are available for executing Projects within
Managed File Transfer
.  Users can execute Projects on-demand from within
Managed File Transfer
’s browser-based administrator.  Projects can also be executed by the integrated Scheduler and File Monitor processes.
External applications can additionally launch Projects from other systems (Windows and Unix) by using
Managed File Transfer
’s commands and APIs, or by making HTTP(S) requests to the
Managed File Transfer
server. 
Managed File Transfer
provides enterprise features for executing Projects including a job queue, multi-threading (to allow the concurrent execution of multiple Projects), priority settings, real-time monitoring and detailed logging.
Every execution of a Project is considered a
Job
. Listed below are the primary steps performed as jobs flow through
Managed File Transfer
.
  1. After an authorized request is received to execute a Project, a Job will be created and assigned a unique job number.
  2. A batch job initially starts in the
    Managed File Transfer
    job queue
  3. When
    Managed File Transfer
    is ready to run the job, it will advance the job from the job queue into the active subsystem to execute. 
  4. The job’s Project will then be compiled and executed by
    Managed File Transfer
    .  
  5. When the job finishes, a job log will be generated.
  6. The completion status (along with any error messages) will be returned to the user or requesting application.
