As you perform your data processing activities, it won't always be necessary to run the whole, entire pipeline. As a simple example: any time you're reprocessing, you won't need to re-run the data receipt step in any pipelines that start with data receipt.
Fortunately, Ziggy provides tools that allow you to manage these conditions.
To see how to do this, return to the Pipelines
panel, select the sample
pipeline, and press the Start
Button. This time, though, when the Start pipeline dialog box appears, don't hit the Start
button on the dialog box just yet. Instead, click the Override start
and Override stop
check boxes. This will allow you to use the pull-down menus to select a different start and end node. For example:
Now press the Start
button and return to the Instances
panel. The pipeline will be running instance 2, which will start with the permuter
tasks. Eventually the panel will look like this:
As advertised, the pipeline ran again but this time it skipped data receipt and stopped short of the averaging tasks.
