Restarting Events

You can restart a suspended event, which is waiting for a task to complete.

The event waits for a task when:

An event is suspended explicitly.
An event is suspended implicitly. Implicit suspend is performed when an activity splits a large batch of records and submits for parallel execution. Such activities wait for all parallel threads to complete before continuing.
Therefore, you can use the Restart event, when the Suspend activity cannot be used effectively, or when an event is unresponsive and there is no way to restart it.

Note: You can also restart an event by adding the Suspend activity to the workflow document. For more information, refer to SuspendWorkflow activity in TIBCO MDM Workflow Reference.

Procedure

Select an Event ID from the Event ID column, and click Restart. A Restart event with the selected event ID dialog is displayed.
Click OK to restart the selected event.

The event is restarted.
