How to update running process?

is it possible to update running process without stopping the job?

I have process which run the sub processes by the sequence (like queue)
when master process stop, all sub processes (about sub processes) are stop aswell.

if I need to insert additional sub process to master job,
then I need to update running master process (which is attended bot)

is it possible to update running process without stopping the job?

@mountie

May I know what you want to update?

any parameters or so?

cheers

master process invoke sub processes step by step
calling next process after finish the process.

updating means
reordering sub-process invoking sequence
or
inserting another sub-process to existing sequence

all processes were developed by studioX

@mountie

You have to edit the master process as that is there you are doing it…while running you cannot

cheers

I’m trying to check queue
master process handle the sub process as queue.
I had no choice with StudioX.
today is my second day using studio (not studioX)

@mountie

So Open the process in studioX and check where it is being invoked it is just as studioX with only addition of multiple xamls

cheers

Is your “Master” process duing something else but invoking sub-processes using the InvokeProcess activity?

If not you can
1/ define list of sub-processes in an external resource (e.g. excel file or JSON or whatever)
2/ in “Master” read sub-processes from that external resource to a list (or datatable)
3/ in a loop take sub-process names one by one from the list and run it using InvokeProcess activity

4/ start over from 2/

While “Master” is processing the list of sub-processes retrieved in 2/ you could change the external resource containing list of sub-processes so that in the next loop “Master” can run another set of sub-processes.

I use successfully such approach in my automation.

when the process is running, technically unable to do live-update
now try to find running the process by schedule.
