Work with Jobs

Specify Topology Checks for Job State Transitions

You can use the industry model options to specify whether to perform a job topology check when the job state is changed. We recommend that you check the topologies when the job transition state changes from Pending to Live.

Users change the job state in AutoCAD Map 3D toolset. See “Changing the Job State” in the User's Guide.

Lease Jobs

By default, data that is processed within a job can only be accessed by the enterprise industry model . Using job leasing, you can make data available to other applications also, for example to SQL plus or import routines. Without job leasing, data is not available until the job state has been set to Live.

Update Jobs

When you open a project that used jobs from before the 2009 release, you can update them to take advantage of the following:

Job Enabling — You must job-enable the entire industry model. Job-enabling of single feature classes or topics is no longer possible.

Job Perimeter — You can use one perimeter feature class for the entire industry model, or you can assign a perimeter feature class for each topic. If necessary, use the Edit Feature Class command to assign a perimeter to a single feature class.

Feature Locking — You can set the feature locking type to either pessimistic or optimistic locking. The previous version supported optimistic locking only.

When you open an existing project for the first time, the industry model structure is updated automatically. For job-enabled industry models, if the job configuration does not match the new job concept, a message informs you that you must repair the job configuration.

Use Enterprise Industry Model Settings to repair an invalid job configuration.
