    The Add Execution Service page

  2. Complete the following fields:
    • Name: An alias for the execution service that serves as a brief identifier, e.g. FAST_LANE.
    • Enabled: Uncheck the Enabled checkbox if you do not want the new execution service to be active.
    • Default: Check this if you want your new execution service to be the default execution service for models that do not nominate a specific execution service.
    • Notes: A text area for you to store notes about the execution service.
  3. Click Save Changes when finished to return to the previous page.
At any subsequent time, you can return to edit the execution service's details by clicking on its name in the Service name column of the Execution Services section.

Two default execution services called PRIMARY and SECONDARY are configured on initial installation. Developers might choose to route longer jobs to, say, PRIMARY and short duration jobs to SECONDARY. This is one way to improve throughput and avoid blocking.
