Distributing Scripts
Batch files and scripting languages are often used to run
sequential processes consisting of tools being run repeatedly, each
time with different input data. Using the XGE Interfaces extension package,
IncrediBuild can be used to distribute execution Of the tools
executed by these scripts. As with all distributed IncrediBuild
jobs, all remotely performed tasks fully emulate the initiating
machine's environment and file system, eliminating the need to copy
files or install applications on remote machines.
Scripts are distributed using the Submission Interface. This involves
modifying the script to call xgSubmit.exe instead
of the tools whose execution we wish to distribute. xgWait.exe is used to
pause the script execution where it is necessary to wait for
currently running tasks to complete. Finally, the script itself is
called using xgConsole.exe.
For more information on the Submission Interface see this section.
