How to queue the original failed job using its job ID instead of going to TFS admin console

by XDK 5. December 2013 09:37

Solution:

Powershell script to invoke failed Jobs

[Reflection.Assembly]::Load("Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client, Version=10.0.0.0, 
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a") $configServer = new-object Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.TfsConfigurationServer
(new-object System.Uri("http://<Server>:8080/tfs")) $tfsJobService = $configServer.GetService([Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Client.
ITeamFoundationJobService]) $jobs= $tfsJobService.QueryJobs() $jobID = new-object System.Guid("the job ID from deletion of project that failed") foreach ($job in $jobs) { if (($job.JobId -eq $jobID)) { $FailedJob = $job $tfsJobService.QueueJobNow($FailedJob,$true) } }

Failed Job Ids can be identified using the below query
use [Tfs_Configuration]  --check this is the name of the configuration database
Select *  FROM [tbl_JobDefinition] where Data like '%failed%' 
--Grab the JobId from above and use in JobHistory
select * from [tbl_JobHistory] where JobId='XXX from above query result”
--check the Result and ResultMessage columns
