Hi!

We have separate applications that handle that kind of tasks. Each of those applications will have only one instance running. No locking needed, no database channel congestion on "real" application instances, etc.

  Yours

I have a scenario where I need my application to periodically fire off background batch tasks in a separate thread, but only need one of the possible instances to perform this task at any given interval. What technique do people normally use with WO to perform this sort of election/locking between instances so that only one of them at a time ever attempts to do the work?
