Circulation notice jobs don't run on Sundays
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
Description:
We are a hosted site. Reports ran on Saturday (at 4:15 AM) and today (Monday) (at 4:15 AM) but not on Sunday.
The overdue and lost reports need to run all 7 days.
Resolution:
The www_server, pc_server's, job daemon, etc., are being stopped at 2 AM on Sunday morning because the weekly cold backup occurs at that time. The backup is still running at 4:15 AM when the p_cir_51 Overdue/Lost jobs would normally run, therefore, the jobd is still down and the jobs are not released from the job_list.
In view of the fact that the notices not produced on Sunday at 4:15 AM *are* produced on Monday at 4:15 AM, it was agreed that not running the jobs on Sunday is not really a problem.
The backups are specified in the root crontab:
# Exlibris Backup Package
# Oracle Cold backup
0 02 * * 0 /exlibris/backup/scripts/exec_backup_main a1
# Oracle Hot backup
0 02 * * 1,3,5 /exlibris/backup/scripts/exec_backup_main a2
# Oracle Archive backup
0 02 * * 2,4,6 /exlibris/backup/scripts/exec_backup_main a3
Note: These are the same entries we see in the Backup Package Guide on the Doc Portal.
