Managing IBM Match 360 jobs
IBM Match 360 processes such as publishing data, matching data, and generating pair reviews are tracked as jobs that you can view and manage from the Jobs screen.
IBM Match 360 jobs are run consecutively, not concurrently. You can start more than one process, but there can only ever be one job that runs at a time, while other jobs wait in a queue.
Start one of the following master data configuration actions to create a job:
- Publish data assets. Publishing data creates the following job types:
data-load-verticesanddata-load-edges. - Run matching. The matching process creates the following job types:
match-bulkderiver,match-bulkmatcher,data-sync-entities, andmatch-bulkreporter. - Generate a pair review. Generating pairs creates the
match-bulkpairscorerjob type. - Customize and tune your matching algorithm. Changing matching thresholds creates the
weight-tuningjob type. - Delete data. Deleting data creates the
data-bulk-deletejob type. - Export data. Exporting data creates the
exportjob type.
