Pentaho engine

The Pentaho engine does not execute sub-transformations or sub-jobs when you select the Pentaho server or Slave server option. If you want to run a sub-transformation on the same server where your parent job runs, select Local for the Run Configuration type.

Run Configuration Dialog Box

The Settings section of the Run configuration dialog box contains the following options when Pentaho is selected as the Engine for running a job:

Location	If you select Slave server, specify the location of your remote server.
Send resources to the server	If you specified a Location for a server, select to send your job to the specified server before running it. Select this option to run the job locally on the server. Any related resources, such as other referenced files, are also included in the information sent to the server.
