How to Run Job in Normal Mode
To run a job in a normal node, you need to select “Basic Run” and click the Run button for the execution to begin.
How to Run Job in Debug Mode
To run job in a debug mode, add breakpoint to the components you want to debug.
Then, select and right click on the component, click Add Breakpoint option. Observe that here we have added breakpoints to tFileInputExcel and tLogRow components. Then, go to Debug Run, and click Java Debug button.
You can observe from the following screenshot that the job will now execute in debug mode and according to the breakpoints that we have mentioned.
