### 12.2.11. Submitting Jobs to EKM from Workbench

You can use the Submit to Portal option in Workbench to submit updates and solutions to an EKM Portal. EKM then dispatches the job to RSM.

In order to submit jobs to an EKM Portal from Workbench, you must create and open an EKM connection in Workbench. For details see Creating a Connection to an EKM Portal in the Workbench User’s Guide.

For information on submitting updates and solutions from Workbench to EKM, see Submitting Jobs to an EKM Portal in the Workbench User’s Guide.

Note:

- Job submission from a Linux Workbench client to a Windows EKM Portal is not supported.

- Jobs submitted from Workbench to EKM can be monitored in EKM, as described in Monitoring and Controlling Jobs, but are managed by Workbench.

- Jobs submitted to EKM from Workbench expire when they are released by RSM. This is in contrast to jobs that are submitted directly from EKM, whose expiry date is determined by the object retention policy in EKM (see Specifying the Object Retention Policy (<retentionPolicy>) in the EKM Administration Guide).

  For jobs submitted to EKM from Workbench, release times in RSM are determined by settings in the [ANSYS 18.2 Install]/RSM/Config/Ans.Rsm.AppSettings.config file:

      <appSettings name="JobManagement">
          <add key="CompressionThresholdMb" value="0" />
          <add key="CleanupTimeSpan" value="00:10:00" />
          <add key="FinishedJobHistoryCleanupTimeSpan" value="02:00:00" />
          <add key="FailedJobHistoryCleanupTimeSpan" value="1.00:00:00" />
          <add key="CancelJobHistoryCleanupTimeSpan" value="00:10:00" />

  Expired jobs are removed from the EKM Job Monitor when the scheduled `purge` task takes place (by default every Saturday at 10 PM). For details see Scheduling Automatic Tasks (<scheduledTasks>) in the EKM Administration Guide.
