Sequence of Package Link Fails

[Former Member]

Dear BPC Friends,

I have a  package link that retract data from BPC to ECC and it runs six DMPs. Three of these DMPs export data for three different cube and I am using process chain (CPMB/EXPORT_TD_TO_APPL). The remaining three are trigger process chain (CPMB/TRIGGER_BE_CHAIN). The  package link is scheduled as per following sequence.

1- /CPMB/EXPORT_TD_TO_APPL (export data for cube 1)

2-/CPMB/TRIGGER_BW_CHAIN (process chain A)

3-/CPMB/EXPORT_TD_TO_APPL (export data for cube 2)

4-/CPMB/TRIGGER_BW_CHAIN (process chain B)

5-/CPMB/EXPORT_TD_TO_APPL) (export data for cube 3)

6-/CPM /TRIGGER_BW_CHAIN (process chain C)

My problem is that if any of the above DMP in this package link fails, the next DMP does not start. So client what is that if any DMP fails, the next DMP should start running.

Kindly advice how can I achieve this.

Thanks,

Vijay

Does anyone else has solution for this problem?

Hi Vijay

Here is what you can do.

Execute your packages via the program UJD_TEST_PACKAGE and create respective variant. Please search the forum on how to create selection files to execute packages via this program. Now you have three options:

- Option 1: Create a process chain with each package to be executed in an individual step. When you connect previous step to the next step, in the process chain select "Always'. This will ensure that next step runs even if the preceding one has failed.

- Option 2: Put the programs for each package in parallel in the process chain

- Option 3: Create one process chain for each of these packages and then create a meta chain and call them in parallel.

The created process chain can be executed via DMP.

Hi Shrikant,

I did not get the kind of solution my clients were looking for when I posted these question. But thanks for bringing into my notice that most of my post  have not been closed.

To the best of my memory, I have given the correct feedback and closed all of them.

Thanks again,

Hi Vijay,

As standard system behavior if any presiding package fails, next DMP will not run.

P.S. You may try to develop process chains in BW and trigger from BPC.

Hi Jadhav, all these process chains are developed in BW and then triggered from BPC. But still the same problem.

Thanks,

Hi Vijay,

If you want to run process chains irrespective of failure or success of previous,then create single process chain (1 to 6) by selecting Execute irrespective of success or failure of previous step.

Just trigger it from BPC using single DMP.

Hi Vijay,

This is default behaviour of the Data Package Link.

All steps has to execute in order to start next step.

Try creating multiple links if there are independent packages.
