Description
This article provides a method to manually run an Archer Job. This can be necessary for multiple reasons, including the below:
- Need to monitor a particular job with a trace tool.
- Need to run a particular job without any other jobs running.
Resolution
Follow the steps below:
1. Stop the Archer Job Engine Service on all Services servers to prevent any additional jobs from being picked up.
Note: Stopping the Archer Job Engine Service will cause any running jobs to fail; therefore, await the completion of any running jobs before stopping the Job Engine, if needed.
2. From a Services server, open a command prompt window (cmd.exe).
3. Change the directory to <Archer Installation Folder>\Services. Note that the drive letter may vary.
4. Run the ArcherTech.JobFramework.Job.exe process.
5. You will be prompted for the Job ID and the instance name separated by a space.
Note: Some jobs queue other jobs. For example, scheduled Data Feeds have a scheduled job that queues the actual Data Feed job which has to be picked up again.
6. Details of the job will be displayed as shown below.
