Transactional batch properties

Properties specified through the wSGrid properties file describe the grid job to be run under the control of WSGrid. This topic describes a set of transactional batch properties.

The following properties are used to describe a transactional batch job comprised of a single step. This provides an xJCL-less methodology for describing a transactional batch job. Specifying these properties is mutually exclusive with specification of an xJCL file on the WSGrid command line invocation and with use of the repository-job property.

Table 1. Transactional batch properties
Property name Description
checkpoint-algorithm Specifies the classname of a checkpoint algorithm implementation. For example, a built-in checkpoint algorithm: com.ibm.wsspi.batch.checkpointalgorithms.timebased
checkpoint-algorithm-prop.<prop-name> Specifies the value of a named checkpoint algorithm property. For example, checkpoint-algorithm.prop.interval=10 specifies a value of 10 for the checkpoint property named interval. This property can be specified multiple times, once for each distinctly named checkpoint algorithm property of the specified checkpoint algorithm.
batch-bean-jndi-name Specifies the JNDI lookup name of the transactional batch bean. For the POJO programming model, this value is com.ibm.ws.batch.DefaultBatchJobStepBean.
bds.<bds name> Specifies the classname of a named batch data stream: bds.input=com.cpv.bds. Input specifies a batch data stream with the logical name input and implementation class com.cpv.bds.Input.
bds-prop.<bds-name>.<prop-name> Specifies the value of a named bds property:. bds-prop.input.interval=10 specifies a value of 10 for the bds property named interval belonging to the bds named input. This property can be specified multiple times, once for each distinctly named bds property of a named bds.
