HOWTO Setup MC Workflows

In order for the master controller (and Forecasting Shell Server) to run properly a several workflows must be scheduled:

• MC:MarkedRecordManager – Removes records marked for deletion. This removes static entries only.
• MC:Synchronisation – Syncronise between several master controllers, only needed on duty standby systems
• MC:RollingBarrel – Removes expired records from the MC database (e.g. timeseries, model states etc)
• RollingBarrel_FSS00 (one for each FSS) – Removes expired records from the FSS database

For each workflow to be scheduled in the Administrator Interface a properties file should be made. Examples are attached to this page.
