This might already be an idea mentioned here that I simply have not come across yet. But in a recent chat I was recommended to post this as an idea here to be voted on.

What I suggest is a scheduling method on server which allows all workspaces in a single repository to be ran as a batch set, or in an ordered set by the user. This would be accomplished with a single scheduled time of start at the schedule page on server and choosing the repository alone to run all workspaces within. As far as I know, currently each workspace has to be scheduled individually, regardless if it resides in the same repository.

If there is a method already in place in 2018 server which can perform this I am not aware and would love to learn how to do it.

Thanks,

Todd

As an alternative, it is easy to create a master workspace that simply chains together several FMEServerJobSubmitters, then schedule the master workspace.

Thanks @david_r. I had thought that might be an alternative, but thought I'd suggest this for a future build if it's found feasible. As with anything using FME, there's probably a way, or several, to get the task done.
