The Grouper Daemon is a command line process that can handle many tasks.
In v2.3+, the daemon is pre-configured to use a database to store job schedules instead of storing them locally in memory.
You can also use the daemon to schedule any custom jobs that you may have. To do so, add the following configuration in grouper-loader.properties:
################################ ## Other jobs ## ## Configure other jobs. ## "jobName" is the name of your job. ## Class must implement org.quartz.Job. ## Priority is optional ################################ # otherJob.jobName.class = # otherJob.jobName.quartzCron = # otherJob.jobName.priority = |
Starting:
gsh -loader |
Starting in Unix:
nohup gsh -loader & |
Stopping: find the process and kill it
See this document to have a unix service which controls the loader
Note: it is also possible to run the loader in another webapp if you like
The long-term roadmap is to have the ability to run the loader in a web services instance or UI instance
