I have a Job which triggers each minute.

The Job contains 3 tasks which are long running executable (they will run forever)
The tasks are mark to "Don't start task i process is running".

Sometimes one of the tasks crashes.

The problem is that the eventhough the job is triggered, the crashed task is not started when the other 2 task are running.

Can this be done?

Thanks

The Job is considered to be running in your case and will not start this Task again when the other are running.

I think, in your case, it is best to split up the Tasks into 3 Jobs.

Precis, can this be bypassed somehow?

Thanks for very fast answer.

You could uncheck that "Do not start if Job is running" and instead, on each Task, add a Condition that checks if that particular Task is running.

Ahhaaa..

I didn’t see that:

Job has "Do not run job if it's running"
and Task has "Don't start Task if process is running".

Unchecking the first, and checking the last seems to work. Then I do not need a additional condition. Do you agree?

Yes, that would work.
