Job Scheduler

Enable locks on job chain level: <job_chain> ... <lock.use lock="my_file" exclusive="no"/> </job_chain> There are (at least) 3 usecases for this feature: 1) Prevent 2 job chains from running at the same time 2) Prevent 2 orders from running in the same job chain at the same time (=no pipelining) 3) Prevent a job chain and a (standalone) job from running at the same time This means: Before starting an order, the job chain checks if the required lock(s) is available. The job chain keeps the lock until:

• The order leaves the job chain

Even if the order is suspended or setback, the Job Chain still keeps the lock.
