How to fail sub box if any command job fail in it | Autosys |


I have a scenario where i want my Sub box to fail if any command job fails which is inside it

For example : Below is my Autosys Structure

DEMO_PARENT_BOX_ABC_T
     DEMO_SUB_BOX_ABC_T
        DEMO_SUB_COMMAND_JOB_T1
        DEMO_SUB_COMMAND_JOB_T2

If my command job : DEMO_SUB_COMMAND_JOB_T1 which is inside Sub Box fail [FA] then my DEMO_SUB_BOX_ABC_T should Fail FA


Solution

  • Default is when all of the jobs that are contained in that box job completes, box is marked as success. However, you can control the completion state of box jobs by specifying the optional box_success and box_failure attributes when you define box jobs.

    For your case,

    insert_job: DEMO_SUB_BOX_ABC_T
    job_type: box
    box_failure: failure(DEMO_SUB_COMMAND_JOB_T1)
