Руководство Пользователя для Cisco Cisco Tidal Enterprise Scheduler 6.2

Agent Name – The agent on which the file is located. The agent doesn’t have to be the same agent 
on which the job runs.

If the job being defined uses an agent list, then the Inherit Agent from Job option is automatically 
selected and the agent list name displays in the Agent Name field.

Inherit Agent from Job – Select this option if you want the dependent file to use the same agent as 
the job or job group you are adding or editing. The default for this option is unchecked.

If the job uses an agent list instead of a specified agent, the dependent file uses the first agent in the 
agent list unless the agent list is the broadcast type. (The order of the agents on the selected list is 
determined by the sequence they were added to the agent list.) If the agent list is a broadcast type, 
then the dependent file uses the same agent the job runs on.

Exists – The file dependency is satisfied when the file exists at the specified path on the specified 
agent.

Does Not Exist – The file dependency is satisfied when the file does not exist at the specified path 
on the specified agent.

Has Changed In DD:HH:MM – The file dependency is satisfied when the file has changed within 
the specified time in days, hours, and minutes prior to when the job entered the production schedule. 
For example, if the job entered the schedule at 1:00 PM, the period specified is 6 hours, and the file 
changed after 7:00 AM (or later), the dependency is met.

Stable For DD:HH:MM – The file dependency is satisfied when the file contents have not changed 
for the specified time in days, hours and minutes from the present time. For example, if the file’s 
modified time is 1:00 PM, the period specified is six hours and the job enters the schedule at 3:00 
PM, the dependency is satisfied in four hours, i.e., 7:00 PM.

Size >= – The file dependency is satisfied when the file size increases to or exceeds the value 
specified in bytes. The maximum file size is 4,294,967,296 bytes.

Size <= – The file dependency is satisfied when the file size decreases to or drops below the value 
specified in bytes. 

The question mark (?) and the asterisk (*) are supported as wildcards in the filenames of file 
dependencies. 

The question mark (

) wildcard represents any single character in a string 

The asterisk (

) wildcard represents any character or group of characters in that position in the string

You may combine the wildcards (for example, T?dal.*)

UNC paths must be used if the user account under which the agent runs has the required access to 
the network share

Wildcards are accepted in filenames only, not elsewhere in the path specification

Note that if the Has Not Changed For or Stable For option is selected with a wildcard file dependency, 
a large match set may result, delaying the check for file dependencies for other jobs.
