v2.7.0

Version Number

2.7.0-440

Version Number

${version-number}

New Features

• SCMOD-6182: Last Updated Time field
  When retrieving the status of a job a new lastUpdateTime field is returned which provides the last time any activity happened on the job, such as when it was last progressed or completed.

• SCMOD-5725: Kubernetes Quick Start
  A Quick Start guide has been added for using the Job Service with Kubernetes.

• Prerequisite jobs pre-created declaration
  Previously when a job was created with a prerequisite, and that prerequisite job was not found in the system, then it was assumed that the job was yet to be created. This remains the default behavior, but now an options string can be specified as a suffix with the prerequisite jobs ids, and if one of the options is ",pc" (i.e. precreated), then if the job is not found then instead of assuming that it is yet to be created the assumption will be that it was previously created, has completed successfully, and has been deleted. This means that the prerequisite can be effectively ignored.

Bug Fixes

• SCMOD-6216: Prerequisite jobs could be ignored
  Previously a job which had multiple prerequisite jobs might have been erroneously started before all of the prerequisite jobs had been completed. In particular this could happen if some of the prerequisite jobs had not yet been created. This has been corrected.

• Specified delay could be ignored
  Previously if a delay was specified then it was ignored if there were no prerequisite jobs or if they were already complete. This has been corrected.

Deprecated Features

• SCMOD-4883: Pre-installed PostgreSQL Docker Image
  Previous versions contained a PostgreSQL Docker Image which had the Job Service pre-installed. This of course was never useful for production but was useful for testing. It is not available for this release. It may or may not be re-introduced in the future.

• SCMOD-5725: Docker Compose Quick Start
  The Docker Compose Quick Start guide has been removed. The Job Service can of course still be used with Docker Compose and this is still supported. The Docker Compose Quick Start guide may be re-introduced in the future.
