Cross-Instance(s) when AutoSys/CA7 Instance Not Defined

Cross-instance dependencies will not be continued across the instances if the AutoSys/CA7 instance where those jobs are defined is not connected to AAI. Instead, you will simply see an indication that there is a cross instance job upstream and there will be no run information for that job. Visually, this will be represented in AAI by the No Run icon, which is a rectangle box with an intersecting slash. A green line will point from the No Run icon to the upstream job.

To help you discover cross-instance dependencies in your environment where the referenced instance is not yet defined to AAI, refer to the Conversion Report that is generated when defining a new instance. You may locate the Conversion Report on the Admin tab by clicking on a scheduler, and then the View Log button. In the figure above, you will see that a scheduler (danang) is added to AAI, generating a Conversion Report that lists jobs contained in danang, which references a job in another instance (ACE), currently not defined to AAI. You will have to add that instance (ACE) for the upstream job(s) referenced to appear.

Note:

If you add an instance that is referenced by a job in another instance, and the one that you are adding has the same instance name as another, AAI will require you to resolve that reference in the Edit Scheduler dialog (x-instances tab).
