EP - Background Processes Tab

An active event processor uses an associated background process to handle the scheduled invocation of the processor. The event processor's Background Processes tab contains information about the available processes. Hover over a BGP ID to display the background process link, click it to open the individual background process.

Note: The functionality of the event processor Background Processes tab is the same for integration endpoints.

The BGP information related to the selected event processor includes:

  • ID: Provides ID of the Background Process. Hovering over it displays the background process (BGP) link. Click on the link to open the individual Import Background Process.
  • Description: Describes the background process as specified by the user.
  • Status: Provides the status of the background process. The Status field can possess any one of these statuses at a given time: Waiting, Failed, Suspended, or Succeeded.
  • Progress: Displays the percentage of the BGP complete on a progress bar.
  • Start Data: Displays the timestamp of when the Event Processor was invoked to run the BGP.
  • Started By: Shows the user name of who initiated the background process by invoking the Event Processor.
  • Errors: Displays the number of errors that occurred in the BGP
  • Created: Shows the timestamp of when the queue was created for the first time.

This information is also available from the BG Processes tab under the Event Processor node when selecting a processor.
