There are two ways to run a complete project.
- You can use the Run option on the project menu.
- You can select the first process and then use the Run option on the process menu.
If you want to view the process flow before running it, right-click the project name and select Open, review the process, and then select Run. You can also double-click the project name to open.
Using Pipes
You can configure a project to run using pipes. Using pipes in a job stream moves data from process to process without creating interim output files. Eliminating these files reduces the disk space required to run processes, allowing large data files to run with lower risk of running out of disk space.
Note the following when using pipes:
- Because there are no interim output files in a piped job stream, you cannot review the results of an individual process except for the end process.
- Profiling processes do not take or generate piped output. Therefore, profiling processes will always generate an output file. When executing multiple processes including profiling, the process that precedes the profiling process will generate a file.
Run a project from the Project menu
To run a project from the Project menu
- From the Navigation or Project View, right-click the project and select Run. The Execute Process window opens.
- (Optional) Select Use pipes.
-
Do one of the following:
- Click Run to run the process immediately (the job will not display as a Background Task).
- Click Background to run the process in the background or schedule the process to run later. The scheduler notification bar opens. Optionally, change the job name in the scheduler notification bar. Run the process in the background or schedule a job to run. (Profiling processes cannot be run in the background.)
Run a project from the Process menu
To run a project from the Process menu
- From the Navigation or Project View, right-click the first process and select Run. The Execute Process window opens.
- Select Include dependent processes to execute all processes that are connected to the current process.
- (Optional) Select Use pipes.
-
Do one of the following:
- Click Run to run the process immediately (the job will not display as a Background Task).
- Click Background to run the process in the background or schedule the process to run later. The scheduler notification bar opens. Optionally, change the job name in the scheduler notification bar. Run the process in the background or schedule a job to run. (Profiling processes cannot be run in the background.)
Run a process in the background or schedule a job
To run a process in the background or schedule a job
- Click Run to run the process immediately (the job will not display as a Background Task).
- Click Background to run the process in the background or schedule the process to run later. The scheduler notification bar opens. Optionally, change the job name in the scheduler notification bar. Run the process in the background or schedule a job to run. (Profiling processes cannot be run in the background.)
