Scheduling the RaiseECEvent job

The RaiseECEvent job raises an event for each of the business events in the BUSEVENT database table that have a status of CHECKED = 0. Registered event listeners are notified when events are raised. After an event is raised, the value of the CHECKED column is updated to -10. By default, this scheduled job runs every 5 minutes.

Procedure

  1. Open the Administration Console and select Site on the Administration Console Site/Store Selection page.
  2. From the Configuration menu, click Scheduler. A list of jobs that are scheduled to run on your store is displayed.
  3. From the list of jobs, select RaiseECEvent.
  4. Update the Schedule interval field to reflect your preferred interval.
    By default this value is set to 300 seconds so that the job runs every 5 minutes.
  5. Click OK.

Results

Your job is listed on the Scheduler Status Display page and runs at the specified start time.

What to do next

The EventProcessor scheduled job manages any further processing of business events with a value of -10:
  • Sends analytics events to an external analytics system and updates the value of the CHECKED column to -20.
  • Updates the value of the CHECKED column to -20 for non-analytics events.
To determine whether the EventProcessor is sending analytics events to an external analytics system, examine the Analytics Event Configuration in the Updating the WebSphere Commerce configuration file file. If the enable parameter is set to false, or if no stores are enabled, the analytics component is not used.

The CleanECEvent scheduled job deletes business events with a value of -20 in the CHECKED column from the BUSEVENT database table.
