Sequential tasks

Hi All,

We noticed that the first and second tasks under Sequential Task are running at the same time. The subsequent tasks are running after the first task is completed, there is no dependency with the second task. Can you please suggest how to prevent this

Dear @sureshbommareddy98

Please provide clarification on the following details related to your IdentityIQ environment and task execution:

  1. IdentityIQ Version: Which version is currently in use?
  2. Task Details: Could you provide details on the Sequential Task and any other tasks that were executed in parallel?
  3. Concurrency Check: For the tasks mentioned above, please confirm if the Concurrency checkbox was selected.
  4. Task Servers: How many task servers are currently available in the environment?
  5. Performance Features: Is multithreading or partitioning enabled in your environment?

IdentityIQ Version: 8.3p3

Task Details: no tasks are running in parallel

Concurrency Check: we have checked “cease execution if one of the executing tasks encounter an error” in sequential tasks.

Task Servers:Three task servers

Performance Features: yes

Please check following article.

could you please check the Host is same or different for the tasks under Task Results

Which tasks are running concurrently ? what are they and cross check again whether you have selected Allow Concurrency check box on sequential task.

Hi @sureshbommareddy98,

based on my understanding and knowledge IIQ will only respect the order if the child tasks themselves don’t allow parallel runs and are constrained to the same host, so could you please check the “Host” field for the Sequential Task and its children then set the same single host to force strict ordering on one task server.

also could you please make sure the 2nd task you see running at the same time is really the child started by this sequential task, and not another scheduled/manual run of the same task…

Have a nice and great one!
