task deployment to Jobserver through TAC

[Vishu1]

Hi,

I am some doubts where I need inputs.

Suppose, we have a task deployed on Jobserver1 from TAC and then we ran that task.

later we made 'updateArtifact' metaservlet API call for the same task. 

What will happen..

Will it re-deploy the new task on Jobserver1?

Also, what is use of jobServer.useCache parameter from TAC configuration.properties.

Thanks,

Hello,

For your supposing scenario, I will make a testing to see what will happen and then come back to you asap.

The "jobServer.useCache" is a property in configuration table - when its "true" (default value)will download minimum required libs.

(jobServer.useCache flag is activating the library caching and content negotiation between TAC and JobServer. TAC will query JobServer about jar dependencies already stored inside the TalendJobServersFiles/cache/lib folder and compare the results with the dependencies in the current job archive. It will then be able to produce a minimized archive ( not containing jar files already in JobServer's cache ) and thus speed up the deployment.)

Best regards

Hi @Xiaodi_Shi ,

Thanks for your clarification on jobServer.useCache.

Please share your outcomes on the deployment scenario.

Thanks,
