Can JOBs be scheduled after ESP Master is down?

Products

• ESP Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

The ESP Workload Automation Primary runs on SYSB, which is scheduled to be brought down at 03:00 on Saturday morning.  And there are two jobs that need to be submitted in the outage windows and run on SYSA which has a proxy.

Can the proxy submit the two jobs?

Environment

Component: ESP WORKLOAD AUTOMATION
Release: ALL

Resolution

No. Proxies can't submit jobs. 

Since the two JOBs need to run after the Primary is brought down on SYSB, and Proxies on SYSA can't manage the future schedules, the best way is to start the Primary on SYSA, so that it can continue to manage workloads.
