Agent Roadmap
ETL+ v2023.07
...
Agent assignment for all or individual scheduled jobs.
Allowing users to enable/disable scheduled jobs from anywhere.
The Agent runs scheduled jobs by monitoring the cloud metadata every 10 secs.
An Agent install can manage and run multiple Jobs. Every Job can only be managed and run by a unique Agent install.
To set up a Job to run on a different computer, the user has to go to that computer and deploy the Agent (instructions here TBD).
The Agent is automatically initiated by a Windows Task Scheduler task and must run with a Windows Local Admin user (configured in ETL+).
The Agent introduces the concept of ETL+ Production installs where the locally deployed Agent runs scheduled jobs and remote tasks. ETL+ Production installs must have direct access to source systems and have the Agent locally deployed and running with a local Windows Admin user.
The Agent captures the Window Device name in the metadata to associate the ETL+ Entity and Job IDs to run by the Agent.
The Agent becomes the default ETL+ scheduling tool (WTS is optional).
The Agent date/times are in PST, as shown on the ETL+ Agent UI.
Users can remotely run a Job on demand.
Users can remotely terminate a Job currently running.
The Agent updates the cloud metadata with Jobs' running/idle status.
The Agent creates a local log file in the same folder where the Agent is.
