DataWorks:System Settings of Data Studio

Last Updated:Mar 31, 2025

If your task needs to be periodically run, you must go to the Scheduling Settings tab in Data Studio to enable periodic scheduling before you configure scheduling settings for the task. This way, the scheduling settings of the task can take effect. In addition, DataWorks allows you to specify a default resource group to periodically run the task. You can also configure default rerun properties, the number of times that an auto triggered task can be rerun, and the rerun interval for the task.

Limits

The default scheduling settings take effect only for new auto triggered tasks.

Modify the default scheduling settings for auto triggered tasks

  1. Go to the Workspaces page in the DataWorks console. In the top navigation bar, select a desired region. Find the desired workspace and choose Shortcuts > Data Studio in the Actions column.

  2. In the lower-left corner of the Data Studio page, click the image icon and select Data Studio Settings. The Data Studio Settings tab appears.

  3. On the Scheduling Settings tab, click Change to configure the parameters. The following table describes the parameters.

    Parameter

    Description

    Periodic scheduling

    Specifies whether to enable periodic scheduling. Auto triggered tasks in the current workspace can be run as scheduled only if you turn on this switch.

    Note

    If you turn off this switch, instances that have been generated for auto triggered tasks on the current day are still run as scheduled. However, DataWorks does not generate auto triggered task instances that are scheduled to run on the next day at night on the current day.

    Time Zone for Scheduling

    The time zone that is used for task scheduling. By default, the time zone that is used for task scheduling is the time zone of the server. If you select a region outside the Chinese mainland and you want to set the time zone that is used for task scheduling to UTC+8, submit a ticket.

    Note
    • To prevent impacts that are exerted by the switching of daylight saving time on the running of tasks in your workspace, we recommend that you view the Impacts exerted by the switching of daylight saving time on the running of tasks topic if the region in which the tasks reside uses the daylight saving time.

    • The time zone of the region in which your DataWorks workspace resides is automatically used as the time zone for scheduling. This indicates that the time zone is used when you specify the scheduling time for a task.

    • DataWorks allows you to change the time zone for scheduling in workspaces that reside in specific regions. For more information, see Scenario: Change the time zone for scheduling.

    Default Scheduling Cycle

    The time when the task is scheduled to run. By default, the scheduling time is randomly generated within the range from 00:00 to 00:30. You can specify a custom scheduling time based on your business requirements.

    Resource group

    The default resource group for scheduling that is used to schedule tasks.

    Data integration resource group

    The default resource group for Data Integration that is used to schedule Data Integration tasks.

    Rerun

    The default rerun policy for auto triggered tasks.

    Note

    If you set the Rerun parameter to Allow Regardless of Running Status or Allow upon Failure Only, make sure that the data idempotence of auto triggered tasks is not affected. Otherwise, data quality issues may occur after multiple reruns.

    Number of reruns

    The number of times that an auto triggered task can be rerun after it fails to run as scheduled.

    Valid values: 1 to 10. The value 1 indicates that the task is rerun once after it fails to run as expected. The value 10 indicates that the task is rerun ten times after it fails to run as expected. You can change the value of this parameter based on your business requirements.

    Rerun interval

    The default interval between two consecutive reruns.

    Valid values: 1 to 30. Unit: minutes.

    Enable auto parsing when submitting a file

    Specifies whether to enable automatic parsing for auto triggered tasks. If you enable automatic parsing, after a node is committed, DataWorks automatically parses the output names of the node and its ancestor nodes based on the latest code.

  4. Click Save.

    Then, new auto triggered tasks in the current workspace use the modified scheduling settings.
