SPSS batch job parameters

Schedule long running SPSS jobs that perform intensive calculations and analytics on data and store them into the IBM® Counter Fraud Management system. You use the WebSphere® Modern Batch feature to set up batch processing of SPSS jobs. An SPSS job contains SPSS streams, which in-turn contain SPSS models that find anomalies and patterns and perform intensive data calculations.

Batch configuration properties

The configuration properties for the CF_Batch_SPSS_Job_Runner batch job are listed in the following table.

Table 1. SPSS Batch Configuration Properties
Property	Data Type	Default Value	Description
AnalysisRunObjects	String	Empty string	Optional. Sends a batch analysis request to ICFM in conjunction with AnalysisRunTypes. The initialization criteria is a comma-separated list of object stereotypes. The number of items must match the number of items that are entered for AnalysisRunTypes. For example, enter "`accident, procedure, policy`". At least one SPSS job must successfully complete before you can send an analysis request to ICFM. If `FailOnError` is set to true, then all SPSS jobs must run successfully before an analysis request is sent to ICFM.
AnalysisRunTypes	String	Empty string	Optional. Sends a batch analysis request to ICFM in conjunction with AnalysisRunObjects. The initialization criteria is a comma-separated list of object stereotypes. The number of items must match the number of items that are entered for AnalysisRunObjects. For example, enter "`event_type, event_type, account_type`". Only `transaction_type`, `event_type`, `account_type`, `phys_object_type`, and `party_type` are supported. At least one SPSS job must successfully complete before you can send an analysis request to ICFM. If `FailOnError` is set to true, then all SPSS jobs must complete successfully before an analysis request is sent to ICFM.
BaseJobPath	String	Empty string	Optional. The root job path common for all SPSS jobs
FailOnError	Boolean	false	Optional. When more than one SPSS job is configured, if this value is set to `true`, then when an SPSS job fails no more jobs are run.
Priority	Integer	5	Optional. The processing priority for the job.
SPSSJobs	JSON Array	[]	Required. A JSON configuration that defines a job path and any optional job parameters.
Timeout	Integer	0	Optional. The timeout value in seconds. When the timeout value is reached, the job result is returned, regardless of whether the job is running or not. The default is 0 seconds, which indicates to wait until completion.
