Description

The "Run Once" option allows tasks to be executed once for each user session

This means that every time a user logs in, the actions marked with this flag will be executed again, regardless of previous executions in prior sessions 

    • If the user clicks "Refresh Agent" during the same session, the tasks configured with the "Run Once" option will not be re-executed
    • This is designed to prevent unnecessary repetition of tasks that have already been processed within that session

Resolution

This behavior is by design. The WEM Agent is configured to execute tasks marked as "Run Once" at each new logon, but it will not repeat these tasks if the session is refreshed without a new logon


Problem Cause

The "Run Once" option in WEM sets the Agent to execute tasks one time within each user session. In other words, it is expected that WEM would repeat the same action in each of the user's logons. It will not, however, re-run the task if the user clicks "Refresh Agent" within the same session.
