On the Reset Jobs page you define the parameters relevant to run that job on the Avaloq system from Automic Automation.

As an administrator, after installing and configuring the Avaloq Agent, you must prepare the Avaloq database so that it can work with the Automation Engine.

The internal Avaloq scheduler executes jobs based on the reschedule intervals that are specified in each Avaloq job definition. If an Avaloq job definition does not contain a reschedule interval, the job is deleted one hour after it has been executed. To be able to use the Automation Engine as external scheduler, you must deactivate this function. Otherwise, there could be a conflict between the Avaloq internal scheduler and the Automation Engine. Deactivation means to move the reschedule intervals into the future. The recommended value is 13 months (+13m).

For this purpose, you create and execute JOBS.AVALOQAGENT.RESETJOB jobs. These jobs execute an SQL command on the Avaloq database that adjusts the reschedule interval and the End-Of-Day behavior for a specific Avaloq Business Unit. In addition, the Avaloq Agent sets the status of jobs to holding after their execution.

Important!

Executing this job once after installing the Avaloq Agent is a mandatory prerequisite to avoid conflicts when the Automation Engine takes over automation operations on Avaloq.
The Avaloq jobs that will be affected by this job MUST NOT BE RUNNING when you execute it. Make sure that you stop any background process that might trigger such Avaloq jobs before executing a JOBS.AVALOQAGENT.RESETJOB job.

This page includes the following:

Defining the Connection Settings

Each Avaloq Job includes a section that you use to connect:

Avaloq Instance

Select the Connection object that will establish the communication between the Automation Engine and your Avaloq system.

Defining the Reset Jobs Section

In the Reset Jobs section, you define the parameters relevant to run that job on the Avaloq system from Automic Automation:

Reschedule Duration

Time period that you move the reschedule interval into the future.

Recommended value: +13m

Possible values: +##[d|m|y]
End of Day Behavior

Specify what should happen if the job is still executing at the EOD:
- Complete before a date switch
  
  The date switch waits until the job completes.
  
  Important! Make sure that you monitor jobs with this setting accordingly. Jobs with very long execution times could block the Bank Date Switch.
- Restart after a date switch
  
  This is the Avaloq default. the job stops immediately before EOD and resumes afterward.
  
  Important! We strongly recommend NOT TO USE this setting with an external scheduler (such as the Automation Engine), as it could lead to unpredictable conflicts.
- Continue on start of End Of Day
  
  The job continues executing even if it has reached the EOD.
  
  Important! This setting can lead to conflicts between the jobs and the EOD. To avoid them, make sure that the behavior of the jobs is properly tested.

Next Steps

Once you have defined the RESETJOB, you can execute and monitor it. You can add it to other Automic Automation objects, such as Workflows or Schedules to orchestrate and automate its execution. For information about Automic Automation Workflows, Schedules and so forth, see Object Types in the Automic Automation product documentation.

Go to the Rapid Automation tab to configure the job reporting options. For more information, see Monitoring Avaloq Jobs, Reports and Optional Reports.
