I want to schedule a job under Pentaho PDI using the Spoon graphical interface. In the pentaho documentation you can see that this is available under Action-->Schedule. But in my case this option isn't there. I'm using Pentaho 6.0.1
What is exactly the problem in my case ?
Thank's in advance for your help.
You will not be able to achieve simply using transformation.
You can create one job and there call your transformation, and you will be able to do batch process/scheduling in spoon.
Note : I am talking about community edition.

I'm using pentaho EE 6.1, and I'd like to setup an data source specific for an user, I'v seen in this link https://help.pentaho.com/Documentation/6.1/0R0/070/Multi-Tenancy
but I don't undersand how to make it.
Some help please.
Question is not clear.
But i had this same issue sometime back and i am sharing my research and understanding.
In Data integration we have option called parameterised connection and in this way you can achieve multitenancy but due to pentaho architecture of bi server we can't achieve the same in bi server.
you can achieve this in bi server through stored procedure this is one of the way.
I'm using Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) version 5.2 on Mac OSX
I would like to create transaction for the 3 transformation in my job.
I follow this manual https://help.pentaho.com/Documentation/5.2/0L0/0Y0/0H0
But there is no Transaction or Miscellaneous Tab in the Job Setting (but it does has in Transformation setting)
Do you guys have any idea how to bring it?
Best Regards,
Based on http://wiki.pentaho.com/display/EAI/.10+Job+Settings, that feature is only in Enterprise Edition. You should check your Pentaho version.
I'm using pentaho BI server(biserver-ce-5.0.1-stable) version.
once i create the data source for reporting and analyse purpose(OLAP cube) it's working fine using at that time Data but i need to know how to process it according to time period(need to change the cube data after mid night).
please share the ideas.
Download Pentaho Data Integration from here.
Go step by step when you created data source and write it down.
Then make Job (or Transformation if it's simple) and make a scheduler.
Here you will find info about PDI.
Good luck!

Pentahoo
PAN

Spoon
Saiku
There are scripting which generates the these four files
cube.json sims.json schema.json path.json
now i don't know which software will be using that json files pentahoo , saiku spoon or what.

Pentaho data integration is one of open source tool provided by pentaho suit.
Spoon is used to create transformation using GUI interface.
if you simply want to run the transformations and jobs then use kitchen or spoon. (mainly used for running this things using command line)
saiku is a 1 of server, pentaho itself has a server (pentaho bi server) and in this you can add saiku pluggin for displaying cubes which are designed in pentaho schema workbench.
for more understanding google the terms which i mansion in the answer.
I would like to automate the entire report generation process using Pentaho report designer using commandline. Is it possible to achieve it in Pentaho?
Input = results data stored in a database
Output = Generate report ( in the form of chart for ex) using Report designer
Thanks

Another option if you dont want to use a BI server at all, is to use the Pentaho Report output step in PDI/Kettle. This is great for scheduled jobs. The advantage of this over running schedules in the BI server is that you can cron them, and then if the BI server is down your reports will still run! i.e. it's a lot more reliable.
Try to use wget and submit URL of xaction.
There's an issue As a reporting user, I want to be able to run reports via a simple GUI tool or via the command line without a GUI open since Dec 2009.
According to Command line tool to run reports it's not planned as of Mar 2014.
