- - ### Method Detail

    - #### isJobInstanceExists

          boolean isJobInstanceExists(java.lang.String jobName,
                                      JobParameters jobParameters)

      Check if an instance of this job already exists with the parameters provided.
      Parameters:
        `jobName` - the name of the job
        `jobParameters` - the parameters to match
      Returns:
        true if a `JobInstance` already exists for this job name and job parameters

    - #### createJobInstance

          JobInstance createJobInstance(java.lang.String jobName,
                                        JobParameters jobParameters)

      Create a new `JobInstance` with the name and job parameters provided.
      Parameters:
        `jobName` - logical name of the job
        `jobParameters` - parameters used to execute the job
      Returns:
        the new `JobInstance`

    - #### createJobExecution

          JobExecution createJobExecution(JobInstance jobInstance,
                                          JobParameters jobParameters,
                                          java.lang.String jobConfigurationLocation)

      Create a new `JobExecution` based upon the `JobInstance` it's associated with, the `JobParameters` used to execute it with and the location of the configuration file that defines the job.
      Parameters:
        `jobInstance` -
        `jobParameters` -
        `jobConfigurationLocation` -
      Returns:
        the new `JobExecution`

    - #### createJobExecution

          JobExecution createJobExecution(java.lang.String jobName,
                                          JobParameters jobParameters)
                                   throws JobExecutionAlreadyRunningException,
                                          JobRestartException,
                                          JobInstanceAlreadyCompleteException

      Create a `JobExecution` for a given `Job` and `JobParameters`. If matching `JobInstance` already exists, the job must be restartable and it's last JobExecution must *not* be completed. If matching `JobInstance` does not exist yet it will be created.

      If this method is run in a transaction (as it normally would be) with isolation level at `Isolation.REPEATABLE_READ` or better, then this method should block if another transaction is already executing it (for the same `JobParameters` and job name). The first transaction to complete in this scenario obtains a valid `JobExecution`, and others throw `JobExecutionAlreadyRunningException` (or timeout). There are no such guarantees if the `JobInstanceDao` and `JobExecutionDao` do not respect the transaction isolation levels (e.g. if using a non-relational data-store, or if the platform does not support the higher isolation levels).

      Parameters:
        `jobName` - the name of the job that is to be executed
        `jobParameters` - the runtime parameters for the job
      Returns:
        a valid `JobExecution` for the arguments provided
      Throws:
        `JobExecutionAlreadyRunningException` - if there is a `JobExecution` already running for the job instance with the provided job and parameters.
        `JobRestartException` - if one or more existing `JobInstance`s is found with the same parameters and `Job.isRestartable()` is false.
        `JobInstanceAlreadyCompleteException` - if a `JobInstance` is found and was already completed successfully.

    - #### update

          void update(JobExecution jobExecution)

      Update the `JobExecution` (but not its `ExecutionContext`). Preconditions: `JobExecution` must contain a valid `JobInstance` and be saved (have an id assigned).
      Parameters:
        `jobExecution` -

    - #### add

          void add(StepExecution stepExecution)

      Save the `StepExecution` and its `ExecutionContext`. ID will be assigned - it is not permitted that an ID be assigned before calling this method. Instead, it should be left blank, to be assigned by a `JobRepository`. Preconditions: `StepExecution` must have a valid `Step`.
      Parameters:
        `stepExecution` -

    - #### addAll

          void addAll(java.util.Collection<StepExecution> stepExecutions)

      Save a collection of `StepExecution`s and each `ExecutionContext`. The StepExecution ID will be assigned - it is not permitted that an ID be assigned before calling this method. Instead, it should be left blank, to be assigned by `JobRepository`. Preconditions: `StepExecution` must have a valid `Step`.
      Parameters:
        `stepExecutions` -

    - #### update

          void update(StepExecution stepExecution)

      Update the `StepExecution` (but not its `ExecutionContext`). Preconditions: `StepExecution` must be saved (have an id assigned).
      Parameters:
        `stepExecution` -

    - #### updateExecutionContext

          void updateExecutionContext(StepExecution stepExecution)

    - #### updateExecutionContext

          void updateExecutionContext(JobExecution jobExecution)

      Persist the updated `ExecutionContext` of the given `JobExecution`.
      Parameters:
        `jobExecution` -

    - #### getLastStepExecution

          StepExecution getLastStepExecution(JobInstance jobInstance,

      Parameters:
        `stepName` - the name of the step execution that might have run.
      Returns:
        the last execution of step for the given job instance.

    - #### getStepExecutionCount

          int getStepExecutionCount(JobInstance jobInstance,
                                    java.lang.String stepName)

      Parameters:
