I'm getting started with JPPF and noticed that after a client submits a job, and while that job is still executing on a remote node, that if I shut down the client, the job is immediately terminated as well. Is that the expected behavior? Are there alternative configurations that would allow a job to continue processing even if there's network interruption with the client? Thanks!

Hello,

Yes, this is the default behavior: when the server detects that a client is disconnected, it cancels the jobs submiitted by this client.
To change this behavior you need to set the cancelUponClientDisconnect attribute of the job's SLA as follows:

Code: [Select]

JPPFJob myJOb = new JPPFJob();
myJob.getSLA().setCancelUponDisconnect(false);
This feature is also documented here.

I hope this clarifies.

Sincerely,
