Spring Batch Job Repository with sybase database.

[Narendra Dhande]

Dear all,

I am using the spring batch 2.1.9. The jobRepository is setup using the sybase database. Everything is running fine. But while creation of job-ids the job ids are not in sequential manner. Every day the sequence is prefixes with different number and generating the job ids from one. I want the behaviour to start the sequenece number from 1 and continues by incrementing by 1 for every new job.

Is any setting at xml configuration level or database level needs to change ?

The job repository is defined as

<bean id="jobRepository" init-method=""
		class="org.springframework.batch.core.repository.support.JobRepositoryFactoryBean">
		<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
		<property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
		<property name="isolationLevelForCreate" value="ISOLATION_DEFAULT" />
		<property name="databaseType" value="sybase" />
		<property name="tablePrefix" value="BATCH_" />
		<property name="lobHandler" ref="lobHandler" />
	</bean>

and the sequence table definition from jar is

CREATE TABLE BATCH_STEP_EXECUTION_SEQ (ID BIGINT IDENTITY);
CREATE TABLE BATCH_JOB_EXECUTION_SEQ (ID BIGINT IDENTITY);
CREATE TABLE BATCH_JOB_SEQ (ID BIGINT IDENTITY);

Thanks

Could you provide an example of the job-id's being generated. Where are you seeing these different id's? In the Job_Instance_Table?

This is supposed to be the default behavior. It should work that way out of the box

Your config looks fine.

Hi,

Found the problem. The sybase database is running in development environment and shut down everyday. There is identity gap due to this.

Thanks
