IScheduler::SubmitJobById method

Adds the job to the scheduling queue using the job identifier to identify the job.

Syntax

HRESULT SubmitJobById(
  [in] long jobId,
  [in] BSTR username,
  [in] BSTR password
);

Parameters

  • jobId [in]
    An identifier that uniquely identifies the job in the cluster to add to the scheduling queue.

  • username [in]
    The name of the RunAs user, in the form domain\username. The user name is limited to 80 Unicode characters.

    If this parameter is NULL, the method uses the name in ISchedulerJob.UserName, if set; otherwise, the method uses the owner of the job.

    If this parameter is an empty string, the service searches the credentials cache for the credentials to use. If the cache contains the credentials for a single user, those credentials are used. However, if multiple credentials exist in the cache, the user is prompted for the credentials.

  • password [in]
    The password for the RunAs user. The password is limited to 127 Unicode characters.

    If this parameter is NULL or empty, the method uses the cached password if cached; otherwise, the user is prompted for the password. If your application is a Windows application, you must call the IScheduler::SetInterfaceMode method to specify the parent window for the credentials dialog box.

Return value

If the method succeeds, the return value is S_OK. Otherwise, the return value is an error code.

Remarks

If the specified job does not exist in the scheduler, the method adds the job to the scheduler before adding the job to the scheduling queue.

If the submit succeeds, the state of the job is Submitted (see JobState). After the job is validated, the job moves to the Queued state. The job moves to the Running state when all required resources are available and the scheduler starts the job.

Tasks are started in the order in which they were added to the job, except if there is a dependency (see the ISchedulerTask::DependsOn property).

You can call the SubmitJob method on a job that does not contain tasks to reserve resources for the job. If the job's RunUntilCanceled property is VARIANT_TRUE, the job is scheduled and runs indefinitely or until it exceeds the run-time limit set in the job's Runtime property (then the job is canceled). If the RunUntilCanceled property is VARIANT_FALSE, the job moves to the Finished state.
