Introduction<\/h3>\n

Hi everybody
\nToday it’s not about Control-M jobs but about Jenkins jobs ,Jenkins allows you also to schedule jobs and below we will see how to make it cyclic.
\nFirst , we will create a job using Jenkins graphic web interface<\/p>\n

How to create a job<\/h3>\n

Connect to Jenkins interface with your login\/password<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n-Select new item
\n-Select freestyle build
\n-Name your build<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIn the build’s configuration , enter your command line in the build\u00a0 part (here we will chose “execute shell” in the drop down menu )<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

configure the scheduling<\/h3>\n

To schedule a job,Jenkins is using the same syntax as Linux crontab,then it’s easy to perform a cyclic job\"\"<\/a>
\nCheck the box ” build periodically”It is Based on the same logic of Linux cron , moreover you have example and syntax by clicking on the “?” icon on the right of the field.
\nOn this example we configured the scheduling to have a build execution every 2 minutes
\nThe screenshot is showing\u00a0 that it will be executed on monday( and every other week days) every 2 minutes and next execution is planned.<\/p>\n

Start the build<\/h3>\n

After that you can launch your build and check if the job is looping as expected (note that each execution create a build)
\nwe can see that build is triggered as expected and time interval is respected as well<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

Jenkins is quite similar with Control-M which allows you to schedule jobs and do many other interesting tasks such as managing a complete workflow using “pipelines”, it can also be mounted as a Docker image and has a good flexibility.the web interface is really intuitive and we can be associate it\u00a0 to other software ( like Control-M )
\nStay tuned to get more Control-M and Jenkins tips and don’t forget to check dbi bloggers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
