Problem Note 63729: A user-defined resource script in SAS® Workload Orchestrator returns unexpected values
In SAS Workload Orchestrator, you can select Script in the Value type field on the User Resources tab when you define a user resource. However, SAS Workload Orchestrator does not wait for a script to terminate and return its values, causing unexpected values to display.
This issue occurs after the script runs successfully once, because the flag that determines whether the script is successful and has completed is not cleared properly.
Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.
