RELATED IDEAS

Add ability to define list of jobs that a specific Async crontask is not allowed to run

Problem

==

Currently the async crontasks allow you to specify a list of jobs that they can run.

If no jobs are specified for a particular crontask then that crontask can pick any job to run. It is unclear if jobs specified for one crontask can be processed by another cron where thre job was included in its job list.

There is a risk that the wrong cron could process the job and delay other jobs.

Request

==

Implement crontask donotrun type functionality so the "incorrect" crontask does not handle the work if another cron includes the name of the job.

 

this would be used by administrators to reduce the risk of a system experiencing delays executing scripts because the wrong cron processed the request.
