This page describes details regarding Project screen in Apache DolphinScheduler. Here, you will see all the functions which can be handled in this screen. The following table explains commonly used terms in Apache DolphinScheduler:
| Glossary | |
| ------ | -------- |
| DAG | Tasks in a workflow are assembled in form of Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). A topological traversal is performed from nodes with zero degrees of entry until there are no subsequent nodes. |
| Workflow Definition | Visualization formed by dragging task nodes and establishing task node associations (DAG). |
| Workflow Instance | Instantiation of the workflow definition, which can be generated by manual start or scheduled scheduling. Each time the process definition runs, a workflow instance is generated. |
| Workflow Relation | Shows dynamic status of all the workflows in a project. |
| Task | Task is a discrete action in a Workflow. Apache DolphinScheduler supports SHELL, SQL, SUB_PROCESS (sub-process), PROCEDURE, MR, SPARK, PYTHON, DEPENDENT ( depends), and plans to support dynamic plug-in expansion, (SUB_PROCESS). It is also a separate process definition that can be started and executed separately. |
| Task Instance | Instantiation of the task node in the process definition, which identifies the specific task execution status. |

* Failure strategy: When a task node fails to execute, other parallel task nodes need to execute this strategy. "Continue" means: after a certain task fails, other task nodes execute normally; "End" means: terminate all tasks execution, and terminate the entire process
* Notification strategy: When the process is over, send the process execution result notification email according to the process status, options including no send, send if sucess, send of failure, send whatever result
* Process priority: The priority of process operation, divide into five levels: highest (HIGHEST), high (HIGH), medium (MEDIUM), low (LOW), and lowest (LOWEST). When the number of master threads is insufficient, high priority processes will execute first in the execution queue, and processes with the same priority will execute in the order of first in, first out;
* Worker group: The process can only be executed in the specified worker machine group. The default is `Default`, which can execute on any worker
* Notification group: select notification strategy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, process result information or email will send to all members in the notification group
* Recipient: select notification policy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, process result information or alarm email will be sent to the recipient list
* Cc: select notification policy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, the process result information or warning email will be copied to the CC list
* Startup parameter: Set or overwrite global parameter values when starting a new process instance
* Complement: two modes including serial complement and parallel complement. Serial complement: within the specified time range, the complements are executed from the start date to the end date and N process instances are generated in turn; parallel complement: within the specified time range, multiple days are complemented at the same time to generate N process instances.
* Failure strategy: When a task node fails to execute, other parallel task nodes need to execute this strategy. "Continue" means: after a certain task fails, other task nodes execute normally; "End" means: terminate all tasks execution, and terminate the entire process.
* Notification strategy: When the process is over, send the process execution result notification email according to the process status, options including no send, send if sucess, send of failure, send whatever result.
* Process priority: The priority of process operation, divide into five levels: highest (HIGHEST), high (HIGH), medium (MEDIUM), low (LOW), and lowest (LOWEST). When the number of master threads is insufficient, high priority processes will execute first in the execution queue, and processes with the same priority will execute in the order of first in, first out.
* Worker group: The process can only be executed in the specified worker machine group. The default is `Default`, which can execute on any worker.
* Notification group: select notification strategy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, process result information or email will send to all members in the notification group.
* Recipient: select notification policy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, process result information or alarm email will be sent to the recipient list.
* Cc: select notification policy||timeout alarm||when fault tolerance occurs, the process result information or warning email will be copied to the CC list.
* Startup parameter: Set or overwrite global parameter values when starting a new process instance.
* Complement: includes serial complement and parallel complement and supports manual date input and date selection. Serial complement defines, within the specified time range, executes the complements from the start date to the end date by sequential and N process instances are generated in sequence. Parallel complement defines executing the complement concurrently in the multiple days to generate N process instances within the specified time range. Manual date input defines: manually input the date following the date format `yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss` and separate dates by a comma. Date selection defines: to select dates via UI.
* Dependent Mode: Trigger the complement of workflow instances that the downstream dependent node depends on the current workflow(It is required that the scheduled status of the workflow instance of the current replenishment is online, and only the downstream supplement directly dependent on the current workflow will be triggered).
* You can select complement time range (When the scheduled configuration is not online, the daily complement will be performed by default according to the selected time range.If the timing configuration is online, it will be complemented according to the selected time range in combination with the timing configuration) when executing a timing workflow definition. For example, need to fill in the data from 1st May to 10th May, as shown in the figure below:
> Serial mode: the complement execute sequentially from 9th May to 10th May, and the process instance page generates 10 process instances;
> Serial mode: the complement execute sequentially from 9th May to 10th May, and the process instance page generates 2 process instances;
> Parallel mode: The tasks from 9th May to 10th May execute simultaneously, and the process instance page generates 10 process instances;
> Parallel mode: The tasks from 9th May to 10th May execute simultaneously, and the process instance page generates 2 process instances;
* You can manually enter the complement dates (independent from the timing configuration) to execute the complement data to workflow definitions. The figure below is an example to make complement data from 9th May to 10th May:
