# Perforce Workshop Jobs
#
#  Job:           The job name. 'new' generates a sequenced job number.
#
#  Status:        Job status; required field.  There is no enforced or
#                 promoted workflow for transition of jobs from one
#                 status to another, just a set of job status values
#                 for users to apply as they see fit.  Possible values:
#
#                 open - Issue is available to be worked on.
#
#                 inprogress - Active development is in progress.
#
#                 blocked - Issue cannot be implemented for some reason.
#
#                 fixed - Fixed, optional status to use before closed.
#                 
#                 closed - Issue has been dealt with definitively.
#
#                 punted - Decision made not to address the issue,
#                    possibly not ever.
#
#                 suspended - Decision made not to address the issue
#                    in the immediate future, but noting that it may
#                    have some merit and may be revisited later.
#
#                 duplicate - Duplicate of another issue that.
#
#                 obsolete - The need behind the request has become

#
# Component:      Projects may use this optional field to indicate
#                 which component of the project a given job is associated
#                 with.
#

Description:
	For Windows SDP, add docs to add P4Diag autostart.
	
	See: https://portal.perforce.com/s/article/17317
	
	The binary is here: http://ftp.perforce.com/perforce/tools/p4diag/bin.ntx64/
	
	The mission: Update the SDP Guide (Windows) to describe how to add P4DIAG
	Autostart to the SDP installation.
	
	With SDP, we know the p4s.exe lives in C:\p4\N\bin, and the P4DIAGLOG
	should be C:\p4\N\logs\p4diag_log.txt (or similar). So we'll need to
	do something like:
	
	p4 set -S p4_N P4DIAGLOG=C:\p4\N\logs\p4diag_log.txt

DevNotes:
	To Do:
	* Test that the install works in a lab.
	* Get it to work, test it. At least see if the log gets generated when the service starts.  Then crash the service somehow (???) and see if P4Diag catches it.
	* Update docs as needed for SDP install on Windows.
	* For extra credit: Update the Python code that sets up the SDP on Windows to include this.
