You can link jobs
states
to each other
by
in several
factors
ways:
"complete" means only start this job after designated job completes
"failed" means only start this job if the designated job fails
"killed" means only start this job if the designated job has been killed
"done" means start this job if the designated job is killed/failed/complete
The second menu chooses between "job" (the entire set of frames) and "work" (typically a frame). So to link frame 1 of one job to frame 1 of a second, job, you would choose "work" in this menu. If you want to wait for all the frames of one job to complete before starting a second, then choose "job". The other option, "subjob", refers to the instance of a job. This is much less common, but means that, for example, the instance of Maya that was running frames has completed.
For a complete description on how to define complex dependencies between jobs or frames, please refer to the Callbacks section of the Developers Guide.
