How we can check if a job is running? So do not run it again

Hi,

We have to execute a task in QMC every 10 minutes, however sometimes the task takes more than 10 minutes so we want to check in the qvw file that execute the task if the task is running and in this case we do not execute it.

How we can check if the job is running? So do not run it again

Qlikview 11.2 SR8

Thanks in advance

IMHO a scheduled task won't get started twice. As long as a task is running, it won't go checking for a trigger to fire again, or so it seems. As soon as it finishes reloading, a task will wait for the next trigger firing.

Agreed with Peter this is the case it won't fire twice, I believe the trigger is still checked though and spots the task is still running so takes no action, should be able to see that action appearing within log files
