Nested Workflows

 

Workflows can call other Workflows called a Nested Workflow. You can define chaining relationships between Nested Workflow causing one Nested Workflow to wait until another Nested Workflow completes.  Nested Workflows allows you to create dependent relationships on Workflow Activities that are running is a Distributed Workload Process.  For example, if you are executing your software build on Serve Pool “A” and you want your Testing Workflow Activities to execute on Server Pool “B”, you would need to define each of these Workflow Activities as a Nested Workflow and then create the chained relationship between them.

Note:  In order to use Nested Workflows the Environment Variable OMSUBMIT_MAX_USER_PROC must be set to a value of 3. This must be set in the shell that launches the omsubmit executable. For Example:

 

OMSUBMIT_MAX_USER_PROC=3
