How to schedule a Penatho job on the Skybot scheduler?

I could not see any reference to the Pentaho on the Skybot documentation. Is there a way to schedule Pentaho transformations and jobs on the Skybot? I have tried creating agents and referring to the file path but nothing is working! Any pointers?

Solution

  • For executing or scheduling in Pentaho, you need to have Pentaho installed in your system. If you are using Linux system, first of all install Pentaho DI in your system. Once you have done that make use of the Skybot schedular. Point the Kitchen.sh or Pan.sh file of pentaho DI and the files you need to schedule/execute. You can take help of this link: How to schedule Pentaho Kettle transformations?

    If all is done you can execute a transformation. Skybot needs OS and Pentaho to execute/schedule a job. The same goes with Windows schedular or any other scheduling tool.

    Hope it helps :)
