Redeploying Jobs for Scheduling :: SAS(R) Data Integration Studio 4.901: User's Guide

Problem

After a job was deployed for scheduling, either the job or the computing environment changed. For example, additional transformations might have been added to the process flow for the job. Alternatively, the job might have been exported to another environment where the servers and libraries are different.

Solution

Use a redeployment option in SAS Data Integration Studio to regenerate the code for one or more deployed jobs and save the new code to a job deployment directory. The redeployed jobs can then be rescheduled.

Tasks

Redeploy All Deployed Jobs in the Current Repository

Perform the following steps to redeploy all deployed jobs in the current repository:

Select ToolsRedeploy for Scheduling in the menu bar. Any jobs that have been deployed are found.
Click Yes to continue the redeployment process. The Redeployed scheduled jobs window is displayed. Verify that the appropriate options have been set, and click OK to redeploy the jobs. Code is generated for all deployed jobs and saved to the job deployment directory for the SAS Application Server that is used to deploy jobs.

The regenerated code contains references to servers and libraries that are appropriate for the current environment. The regenerated jobs are now available for scheduling.

Redeploy All Deployed Instances of a Selected Job

As described in A Job Can Be Deployed to Multiple Locations, a single job can be deployed to multiple locations. Each deployed instance has its own name. Perform the following steps to redeploy all instances of a selected job. If the job has one deployed instance, that one instance will be redeployed.

Expand the Job folder in the Inventory tree. The icons for deployed jobs have a blue triangle overlay.
Right-click a deployed job. The pop-up menu lists the name of each deployed instance. For example, the following display shows that a job named Emp Sort Job has two deployed instances: Emp_Sort_Job_deploy1 and Emp_Sort_Job_deploy2.
Select Redeploy to redeploy all deployed instances of the selected job.

Redeploy One Instance of a Selected Job

As described in the previous topic, a single job can be deployed to multiple locations. Each deployed instance has its own name. You can redeploy one deployed instance of a selected job from either the Job folder or the Deployed Job folder.

Perform the following steps in the Job folder of the Inventory tree:

Expand the Job folder. The icons for deployed jobs have a blue triangle overlay.
Right-click a deployed job. The pop-up menu lists the name of each deployed instance. For example, a job named Emp Sort Job could have two deployed instances: Emp_Sort_Job_deploy1 and Emp_Sort_Job_deploy2.
Select the deployed instance that you want to redeploy, such as Emp_Sort_Job_deploy1.
Select Redeploy.

Alternatively, you can perform the following steps in the Deployed Job folder of the Inventory tree.

Expand the Deployed Job folder.
Right-click a deployed instance that you want to redeploy, such as Emp_Sort_Job_deploy1.
Select Redeploy.
