Say i have job which needs to be executed at fixed times in a day like below,
"05:00, 06:10, 07:30, 08:15, 09:05, 10:35"
How could i build a Trigger for this in Quartz ?
I couldnt find the way to achieve this out-of-the-box.
I see two ways to solve your problem:
1. Multiple triggers (recommended).
The most obvious and easy way to set the unusual scheduling for you job is to combine several triggers.
Quartz allows to set as much triggers as you want for single JobDetail.
2. Implement your own trigger.
It is more complicated way, applicable only if you must use only one trigger.
You could implement org.quartz.Trigger interface or any subinterfaces to set yourown rules.

I am modeling ticket system with various SLA. The model must contain several service blocks with different reaction time ( from 2 to 32 hours). In the service block only working hours should be taken into account. So in the service block timeout should stop when non-workong hours and on the weekend. Could you please kindly tell me how i can realize it?
Thank you very much in advance!
I can think of two answers, one simplified but works in many cases, the other more advanced and probably more accurate:
Simplified approach: I would set the model in hours and keep everything running as is without any stop. So, at the end of the simulation, if the total time is 100 hours and you know that you have 8 hours/day with 5 days/week, then you'd know the total duration is 2.5 weeks. Of course, this might have limitations or might become more complex later on if you want day-specific actions (e.g. you want to differentiate between Monday, Tuesday, etc.)
Advanced more accurate approach: Create resources whose capacities are defined by schedule and assigned them to your services. Create a schedule and specify the working hours in that schedule. Check the below link to learn more about schedules. I call this the more advanced approach because you need to make sure the schedule is defined correctly and make sure all elements in the model are properly controlled (e.g. non-service blocks such as source, delays, etc.).
https://help.anylogic.com/topic/com.anylogic.help/html/data/schedule.html?resultof=%22%73%63%68%65%64%75%6c%65%73%22%20%22%73%63%68%65%64%75%6c%22%20
I personally would use the first approach if the model is rather simple and modeling working hours is enough for analysis. Otherwise, I'd go for option 2.
Finally, another option I'd like to highlight is the "suspend/resume" functions. I am only adding this because you asked "how to stop timeout". So these functions specifically stop and resume timeout. But you'll need to define the times at which they are executed (through an event for example).
My company has a couple of joblets that we put in new jobs to do things like initialization of variables, get system information from the database and sending out error / warning emails. The issue we are running into is that if we go ahead and start creating the components of a job and realize that we forgot to include these 3 joblets, we have to basically re-create the job to ensure that the joblets are added first so they run first.
Is there any way to force these joblets to run first and possibly also in a certain order before moving on to the contents of the job being created? Please let me know if there is any information you may need that I'm missing as I have only been using Talend for a few days. The rest of the team has not been using it too much longer than I have, so they do not have the answer I'm looking for either. Thanks in advance!
In Joblets you can use the components Trigger_Input and Trigger_Output as connection-points for on subjob OK triggers. So you can connect joblets and other components in a job with triggers. Thus enforcing execution order.
But you cannot get a on subjob OK trigger from a tPreJob. I am thinking on triggering from a tPreJob to a tWarn (on component OK) and then from tWarn to the joblet (on subjob OK).
I am exploring Talend at work, I was asked if Talend supports batch processing as in running the job in multiple threads. After going through the user guide I understood threading is possible with sub jobs. I would like to know if it is possible to run the a job with a single action in parallel
Talend has excellent multi threading support. There are two basic methods for this. One method gives you more control and is implemented using components. The other method is implemented as job setting.
For the first method see my screenshot. I use tParallelize to load three files into three tables at the same time. Then when all three files are successfully loaded I use the same tParallelize to set the values of a control table. tParallelize can also be connected to tRunJob as easily as a subjob.
The other method is described very well here in Talend Help: Talend Help- Run Jobs in Parallel
Generally I recommend the first method because of the control it gives you, but if your job follows the simple pattern described in the help link, that method works as well.
I'm working on a project with Quartz and has been a problem with the dependencies with jobs.
we have a setup where A and B aren't dependent on eachother, though C is:
A and B can run at the same time, but C can only run when both A and B are complete.
Is there a way to set this kind of scenario up in Quartz, so that C will only trigger when A and B finish?
Not directly AFAIK, but it should be not too hard to use a TriggerListener to implement such a functionality (a TriggerListener is run both a start and end of jobs, and you can set them up for individual triggers or trigger groups).
EDIT: there is even a specific FAQ Topic about this problem:
There currently is no "direct" or "free" way to chain triggers with
Quartz. However there are several ways you can accomplish it without
much effort. Below is an outline of a couple approaches:
One way is to use a listener (i.e. a TriggerListener, JobListener or
SchedulerListener) that can notice the completion of a job/trigger and
then immediately schedule a new trigger to fire. This approach can get
a bit involved, since you'll have to inform the listener which job
follows which - and you may need to worry about persistence of this
information. See the listener
org.quartz.listeners.JobChainingJobListener which ships with Quartz -
as it already has some of this functionality.
Another way is to build a Job that contains within its JobDataMap the
name of the next job to fire, and as the job completes (the last step
in its execute() method) have the job schedule the next job. Several
people are doing this and have had good luck. Most have made a base
(abstract) class that is a Job that knows how to get the job name and
group out of the JobDataMap using pre-defined keys (constants) and
contains code to schedule the identified job. This abstract Job's
implementation of execute() delegates to an abstract template method
such as "doWork()" (where the extending Job class's real work goes)
and then it contains the code for scheduling the follow-up job. Then
they simply make extensions of this class that included the work the
job should do. The usage of 'durable' jobs, or the overloaded
addJob(JobDetail, boolean, boolean) method (added in Quartz 2.2) helps
the application define all the jobs at once with their proper data,
without yet creating triggers to fire them (other than one trigger to
fire the first job in the chain).
In the future, Quartz will provide a much cleaner way to do this, but
until then, you'll have to use one of the above approaches, or think
of yet another that works better for you.
I have 7 workflow that need to execute; that need to run in certain order ? Is there any scheduling service for this in wf4 or any other approach i can use?
Ocean
If you need to run them sequentially in a certain order, why not just create another workflow and put all 7 of your workflows as activities in a top sequential activity?
If you create an activity that derives fron NativeActivity you can schedule child activities in any order you like. That is the closest thing to a "SchedulerService" I can think of.
However you have to know the activites you want to run at compile time. You can only arrange the order differently using this approach.
If you don't know which activities you want to use at compile time you could use a parent/child technique I showed on my blog WF4 How To Invoke a Child Workflow as XAML
