We are using the TAC metaservlet to startup jobs synchronously.
The task start date in the Task execution monitoring corresponds to the time that we call the metaservlet. The task duration is 3 seconds, task end date is correct. But the metaservlet takes 4 minutes to respond.
You can do this by setting in the configuration.properties file (location : <tac>\apache-tomcat\webapps\org.talend.administrator\WEB-INF\classes\configuration.properties 😞
