Executing Commands in the Command Task

Executing Commands in the Command Task

The Integration Service runs shell commands in the order you specify them. If the Load Balancer has more Command tasks to dispatch than the Integration Service can run at the time, the Load Balancer places the tasks it cannot run in a queue. When the Integration Service becomes available, the Load Balancer dispatches tasks from the queue in the order determined by the workflow service level.
You can choose to run a command only if the previous command completed successfully. Or, you can choose to run all commands in the Command task, regardless of the result of the previous command. If you configure multiple commands in a Command task to run on UNIX, each command runs in a separate shell.
If you choose to run a command only if the previous command completes successfully, the Integration Service stops running the rest of the commands and fails the task when one of the commands in the Command task fails. If you do not choose this option, the Integration Service runs all the commands in the Command task and treats the task as completed, even if a command fails. If you want the Integration Service to perform the next command only if the previous command completes successfully, select Fail Task if Any Command Fails in the Properties tab of the Command task.
You can choose a recovery strategy for the task. The recovery strategy determines how the Integration Service recovers the task when you configure workflow recovery and the task fails. You can configure the task to restart or you can configure the task to fail and continue running the workflow.
