Challenge: How can I ensure that FME Engines don’t get stuck on a long job.
More workflows than ever are dependent on 3rd Party applications/services.
An engine may hang or take too long waiting on responses.
For any job you now have a new setting (Schedules and run Workspace)
Max elapsed time in seconds job will run.
If timer expires job is killed!
Solution: Now you can specify a maximum time that a job will run.
Solution: Now you can specify a maximum time that a job will run.
If job takes longer than the allocated time then the job is cancelled.
