Design, Submit, and Monitor Job Flows

Learn about the basics of job flows, design your flow and submit jobs to it, debug your flows, and monitor and control job flows.

Flow basics
Learn what flows are and what you can do with them. When you submit a flow, the flow gets submitted to the LSF Process Manager Server, which manages the dependencies in the flow. When a job is ready to be run, Process Manager Server submits it to the LSF management host. Learn about the actions that you can take on flow definitions: publish and unpublish flows, enable and disable event triggers, submit and remove flows.
Designing your flow
Learn how to design a flow in IBM Spectrum LSF Process Manager Flow Editor for use in LSF. Use the provided flow definition examples to create a flow or design your own.
Debugging your flow
Learn how to debug a flow in IBM Spectrum LSF Process Manager Flow Editor, by test running a flow from the beginning, from a selected work item, or from multiple starting points. Flow Editor also allows you to monitor and debug a running flow.
Monitor and control your flow
Submit job flows, check the state of jobs in a flow, control jobs in a flow, view information about flow definitions, and work with manual jobs.
