Generic processes

Generic processes are processes that are designed to run outside normal component or application processing.

Generic processes can be used anyplace where an application or component process might not be needed. Generic processes are run by agents on hosts that are managed by the agents.

Like component processes, generic processes consist of plug-in steps. Generic processes are created in the same way that component processes are created: steps are placed and configured in the process design editor. All plug-ins can be used but, obviously, some might be of little or no use outside a deployment. See Process editor.

To run a generic process, select the process and resource (the agent that runs the process), then use Submit (Processes > [selected process]).

Generic processes can also be run from within component processes.
