Let us modify the definition file to add a family f2.
For brevity we have omitted the previous family f1

 

Code Block
# Definition of the suite test
suite test
 edit ECF_INCLUDE "$HOME/course"  # replace '$HOME' with the path to your home directory
 edit ECF_HOME    "$HOME/course"

 family f2
     edit SLEEP 20
     task t1
         time 00:30 23:30 00:30
     task t2
         day sunday
     task t3
         date 16.01.*.*2017
         time 12:00
     task t4
         time +00:02
     task t5
         time 00:02
 endfamily
endsuite

 

Python

For brevity we have left out family f1. In python this would be:

#!/usr/bin/env python2.7
import os
import ecflow  

def create_family_f2():
    f2 = ecflow.Family("f2")
    f2.add_variable("SLEEP", 20)
    f2.add_task("t1").add_time( "00:30 23:30 00:30" ) # start(hh:mm) end(hh:mm) increment(hh:mm)
    f2.add_task("t2").add_day( "sunday" )
   
    # for add_date(): day,month,year; here 0 means every month, and every year
    t3 = f2.add_task("t3")
    t3.add_date(1, 0, 0)           # day month year, first of every month or every year
    t3.add_time( 12, 0 )           # hour, minutes at 12 o'clock
   
    f2.add_task("t4").add_time( 0, 2, True ) # hour, minutes, relative to suite start
                                             # 2 minutes after family f2 start
    f2.add_task("t5").add_time( 0, 2 )       # hour, minutes suite site
                                             # 2 minutes past midnight
    return f2
            
print "Creating suite definition"   
defs = ecflow.Defs()
suite = defs.add_suite("test")
suite.add_variable("ECF_INCLUDE", os.path.join(os.getenv("HOME"),  "course"))
suite.add_variable("ECF_HOME",    os.path.join(os.getenv("HOME"),  "course"))

suite.add_family( create_family_f1() )
suite.add_family( create_family_f2() )
print defs

print "Checking job creation: .ecf -> .job0"   
print defs.check_job_creation()

print "Checking trigger expressions"
print defs.check()

print "Saving definition to file 'test.def'"
defs.save_as_defs("test.def")

What to do

  1. Make the changes to the suite definition file
  2. Create all the necessary ecf script‘s by copying the one from /test/f1/t7
  3. Replace the suite
    python:  python test.py; python client.py
    text:       ecflow_client --suspend=/test  ;  ecflow_client --replace=/test  test.def
  4. ecflow_ui  has a special window to explain why a task is queued. Select a queued task and press the why icon
        
    or click on the 'Why tab'
