Process Nodes Overview

Process nodes perform actions, from running an Integrator script, to copying files, or building a cBase or model. Each type of process node performs a specific function.

Each type of process node has a concept of success or failure, depending on what the node does. Based on that success or failure, the process node controls which node is next in the task flow.

Process Node	Description
Build cBase	Runs the Spectre Build application to build a cBase. See Build cBase Process Node.
Build Model	Runs the Builder application to build one or more models. See Build Model Process Node.
Build Factory	Creates cPlans or cBases per data set as described in a factory or measures script. See Build Factory Process Node.
CacheDT	Computes and caches data to improve sync time for DiveTab applications. See CacheDT Process Node (DiveTab).
Copy	Copies or moves files from one location to another location. See Copy Process Node.
Delay	Pauses execution of the branch for a given number of seconds. See Delay Process Node.
Delete	Deletes files and directories from the specified location. See Delete Process Node.
DIAL	Runs one or more DIAL scripts. See DIAL Process Node.
Dive	Runs a Dive script that queries a cBase. See Dive Process Node.
Email	Sends emails as defined by email templates. See Email Process Node.
Execute	Runs one or more command line commands. See Execute Process Node.
FTP	Pulls data from or pushes data to a server by using the File Transfer Protocol. See FTP Process Node.
Integ	Runs one or more Integrator scripts. See Integ Process Node.
Mkdir	Creates one or more directories. See Mkdir Process Node.
Parameter	Defines and sets parameters. See Parameter Process Node.
PrintDP	Generates DivePort pages in pdf or png formats, with the option to save locally or email the file. See PrintDP Process Node.
Production	Runs a Production script. See Production Process Node.
Spectre Cache Refresh	Refreshes cached dives on the server. See Spectre Cache Refresh Process Node.
SSH	Pulls data from or pushes data to a server by using Secure Shell protocol (SSH). See SSH Process Node.
Trigger	Creates a trigger file that can be picked up or interpreted by other scripts or production processes. See Trigger Process Node.
Unzip	Decompresses files from various compressed formats. See Unzip Process Node.
Zip	Compresses files into various compressed file formats. See Zip Process Node.
