Jobs [or something like it]

Open bishgupp opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

Hello - 1st I love this tool, and use it often. When I am running a process [say 'Audit Patches'], I would like to run it as a job - which would allow me to run something else [say 'Check Pending Reboot' ] - in the tool description Boe mention that he tool out the PSJobs layer -

Looking at putting a job feature at the UI layer. Would love to assist with this where i can -

Thanks, Peter

I actually took away PSJobs in favor of runspaces as they are less overhead and easier to setup throttling with. I intentionally block extra things from running to prevent issues if the different commands are run against the same system. But if there is enough feedback that would like this to be added, then I would definitely consider it.

I forked it so - so all I need to do know is understand how PSJobs works as well as you do - so I add it back in, then I need to understand how you created the UI - so I can have the job(s) post returns to the same UI screen in parallel. Now where did i put my Bruce Payette book...

I was thinking that this tool would more useful if it could run different commands on different servers at the same time. I had some servers that were taking 5 minutes to patch and others that were taking 45 minutes to patch. I either had to manually restart the ones that finished early or wait until the straggler finished to use the tool.
