Adding the BatchJobService

The BatchJobService manages provisioning jobs.

The Supervisor PC is licensed for provisioning and has the required modules installed.
  1. If it is not already open, in Workbench, open the Supervisor station.
  2. Open the provisioningNiagara palette in the palette side bar.
  3. Expand Config and double-click Services
    The Service Manager opens.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • If a BatchJobService is already listed, verify that it is enabled (status ok).
    • If no BatchJobService exists, from the palette, drag the BatchJobService onto the station’s Services folder. In the popup Name window, rename the service—or use the default name and click OK.
    A BatchJobService (or whatever you named it), appears under your Services folder.
  5. Right-click the BatchJobService and click Views > AX Property Sheet.
  6. Expand Job Queue and set the service’s Max Threads property to a value greater than 1, say 2 or 3 and click Save.
    This allows more than a single provisioning job to run concurrently.
  7. To monitor provisioning alarms, change Alarm Class from the default Default Alarm Class to another alarm class
