where are transactions persisted on file system?

[Vince Clark <vc...@globalera.com>]

I'm trying to kill a runaway job but shutting down and restarting doesn't take care of it. So I assume the transaction is being persisted and I want to delete it from the filesystem.

I'm not sure what you mean by "transaction" in this case, no  
transactions are persisted. Tomcat is setup to save session attributes  
to the disk, but that's it for any sort of local persistence. The jobs  
are persisted to the database, but not any sort of temporary state. In  
other words only the data needed to run the job is needed, but not any  
incremental data as the job runs.

What you may be seeing is the job starting up again since it failed to  
finish. If that's the case, just kill the record for that job (or  
change it's status).

Hi Vince,

if you are talking about scheduled jobs then look at the JobSandbox  
entity; there is also a ui to manage jobs in the Webtools.
