I'm using a Job with 2 tasks
1. Job - Stop Job : X
2. Job - Start Job : X

I want my job to restart all tasks in X. X is a Job with 5 always running tasks.

In the VC Client it says "❌ Run synchronous (wait for completion)"

The problem is that "1. Job - Stop Job : X" is not waiting until the job has completed.

Therefor i get some strange results. Sometimes only half of the tasks is running.

Hi,

sorry for the late reply. No, we do not wait as Stop *should* be initiated right away. How does this create a problem for you? That the process is not killed in time or?

As I described in the first post, it gives unpredictable results. Maybe because the processes are not stopped in time.

I have now found out that it is a GUI bug. First create a "Start Job" Task. Make sure "❌ Run synchronous (wait for completion)" is checked. Now change the task to a "Stop Job" task. The flag is still checked! ;(

We will fix this. We have already fixed the Startup trigger you mentioned.
