Property Pages

Property pages common to all Conditions

General

Name for this condition (optional)

Check this box to enable the condition, or uncheck to disable it. A disabled condition will be ignored by adTempus.

Description/Notes

Optionally, enter an extended description or notes about this condition.

Condition Wait

The options on this page determine how adTempus waits for this condition.

Condition Wait

This option determines whether adTempus will wait for the condition to be met:

Condition Polling

This option determines how often this condition should be evaluated. In most cases you will use the default polling interval (about 30 seconds). You may wish to use a longer polling interval to reduce the load on adTempus in cases where checking a condition is resource-intensive (such as a Script Condition that does a large amount of processing).

When you set a polling interval for one or more conditions on a job or step, adTempus applies the longest polling interval to all conditions.

The server-wide default interval can be set through the Advanced Server Options window.

Once satisfied, do not re-evaluate when evaluating other conditions for this instance

This option determines how this condition behaves once it is met if the job or step also has other conditions that have not been met. adTempus will keep checking each condition until it is met or times out.

If this option is checked, adTempus will not check the condition again once it has been met. If the option is not checked, adTempus will keep checking the condition each time it checks the other conditions.

Script Condition

Script to evaluate

Select or create the script that adTempus should evaluate. See the Script Overview topic for information on working with scripts.

See the Script Condition overview for guidelines on implementing a condition script.

Your script must return a value of either True (condition is satisfied) or False(condition is not satisfied). Any other value will cause the condition to fail.
