Project Execution Using the Default Grid Engine

Execute projects in the default grid engine.

  • For projects currently open in the Design window, select Run > Execute, or click the Execute icon on the toolbar.

    Execution impacts the state of the simulation. If you try to execute an unsaved project, you are prompted to save the project. If you save the project, all simulation data for the project is lost, and the project is executed.

    Note:

    Before execution, you must save project changes as the project definition is read from the repository. If you do not save the changes, execution does not start.

  • In the Navigator, select the project to execute. Right-click and select Execute Project.

Before executing an EL Project, you can edit these runtime properties:
  • Extract from source

  • Load into target

  • Row limit

  • Restart failed project – allows you to restart execution from the point where the error occurred instead of executing the entire project from the beginning. For example, if an EL project that has 100 tables to be loaded fails after loading 75 tables due to a problem in loading the 76th table, you can fix the problem with the 76th table and restart execution to allow the remaining 25 tables to be loaded.
    Note: You can only restart a failed EL project. This feature is not available for SQL Transformation and ETL projects. To be able to restart a failed EL Project, you must set its transaction type property to Restartable at design time.
