Thank you,

Presume:

P1 is the process you want to invoke every 3 minutes

create a process named P2.

In the process P2:

      1. add a Sub Process activity and define to invoke P1.

      2. add a Wait Point activity and set 3 minutes.

      3. connect the route back to sub process (just make a loop)

now invoke the process P2 manually (by right click, then Invoke) within workbench.

Your P1 will get invoked by the helper process P1 every 3 minutes.

Thank you so much for your answer. I was thinking the same way but I thought may be I can set something from the adminui to invoke the process.

Hi,

    You can write a java application to run the main process automatically if do not wish to invoke it manually.

   Have a look at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-schedule.html, this provides scheduler library which you can use to invoke your java program

  which in turn invokes your livecycle process.
