Pausing job for system outage

[former_member202087]

We have data services jobs that are triggered by event based BW cyclic process chains.  Being event based they do not run at specific times.  The target of these jobs is a HANA database that has some scheduled outages.

Is there a way to build logic into the data services job or process chain to not trigger if the target system is down?

Thanks,

Ken

You can embed your DS job code in a try-catch. Start the job with a sql call to the HANA db. When HANA is down, the call will fail and control directed to the catch where you can terminate the job.
