I can see the central repository is active, (via tools/central repositories)

Now under local object library when i right click a job, the option add to central repository is greyed out.

What may be the reason?

Thanks a lot for the helpful info.

Hi Guy,

Reason is the job which you are trying to add into central repository is already present in the central.

If you have made any changes in the following job in local repository,Check out the following job in the central and then check in.

Hi Murali, You are right, once i added to the repository it greyed out.

But when i did changes to teh script object and also data flow, and validated and saved teh job.

And still the changed job still shows add to central repository greyed out.

What do i need to do in order to enable the add to central repo option.

After i made the changes i haven't executed, just made the changes saved and validated.

Thanks a lot for the helpful info.

Hi Guy,

1. If you need to maintain the version in the central repository,

Follow the below steps

Step1:Right click the following job in central and check out with object and dependents without replacement.

Step2:Check in with object and dependents.

2.If you don't want to maintain the version in the central repository

Step1: Delete the following job in central repository.

Step2: Right click the job in local repository and add to central repository.(Add to central will be enabled).

Thanks,

Murali, Thank you very much for the helpful info.

It seems to me we have done modification to the job without checking out teh job from central repo. That may be the issue why when i right click it is n't giving me option to add to repository.

What should we do in those cases, if we do modifications to the jobs without checking out, is there a way to add them back to central repo safely or i will have tp delete the job from central repo and then add to repo action must be done?

If i delete the job from central repo, will it also delete from local repository? before i delete the job from central repo just wanted to make sure.

Hi Guy,

No when you delete in the central,it will not be deleted in local repository.

But you can follow this steps to add the changed job in central repository after making changes in the local repository.

1.Make the changes in the job(local),validate,save and execute(Job Success).

2.Check out in the central with object and dependents without replacement.(Right click on that job).

3.Check in that job with object and dependents.

Thanks,

Thks Murali,

I have been running these jobs everyday, no issues no error logs nothign job runs good and i have been making changes.

Whenever i run execute job and goes successful, i always do validation including dependent objects ofcourse save the content.

When ever i execute the job does it automatically save the content to central object library? don't i need to chk out and chk in?

From this repository the jobs always will be run as part of development. Am i not suppose to chkout the file and make changes and then chk in teh file afterwards.

I have used Visual source safe with dot net projects where we chk out and chk in that is teh process, we can also see lock and unlock icons as part of all files which are from source safe.

Just trying to associate that flow here.

Thank you very much for all teh helpful info you are providing.

When ever you made changes in the Local repository it will not be updated in the central repository.

Once you do the check out and check in only it will be updated in central.
