I’d like to understand the WebUI’s parallel option better.
Given the following schedule only as an example (it wouldn’t make sense to run these jobs in parallel)
If I select parallel for any single job what happens?
If I select parallel for copy and prune when will check run?
If I select parallel for copy and check when will prune run?
I don’t know and honestly haven’t tested it for these questions, but I remember my initial though about this feature is that it should have a priority level for each job - i.e. all parallel jobs with weight 1 would run in parallel, then weight 2 etc… Jobs without parallel ticked would run sequentially.
If you have a single parallel job then it will run sequentially. Only when you mark 2 or more consecutive jobs as parallel will they run at the same time.
That makes sense. What about order?
Assuming 3 jobs where the 2nd and 3rd are parallel (but the 1st isn’t) will 2 and 3 not start until 1 is finished?
And if the 1st and 2nd are parallel but 3 isn’t, will 3 not start until both 1 and 2 are finished?
If a job is not parallel then it will never run in parallel with other jobs.
This is correct.
This is correct too.
