3.9 Defining <strong>Job</strong>s<br />

<br />

The other fields on the <strong>Job</strong> Definition panel all have default values, some of<br />

which appear on the panel. Most job fields default to values specified on<br />

schedule records which means you do not have to type in values on the <strong>Job</strong><br />

Definition panel if you already entered that data on the schedule's record. But<br />

defaults based on schedule values do not appear on your panel.<br />

When you are defining job records, tab from field to field until you have<br />

supplied all the values necessary. To further your understanding of <strong>Unicenter</strong><br />

<strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong>, these fields will be described later in this chapter.<br />

To save this job base record, press Enter. <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> responds by<br />

displaying this message:<br />

DEFINE JBR LASTUSER=userid,NAME=DEFAULTS,SCHEDULE=BACKUP<br />

<strong>CA</strong>CU18I JBR DEFAULTS HAS BEEN ADDED<br />

If a job by that name already exists in that schedule, <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong><br />

displays the message:<br />

<strong>CA</strong>CU15E DEFINE JBR BACKUP DEFAULTS DUPLI<strong>CA</strong>TE RECORD<br />

If that message appears, try giving your job another name.<br />

You will see how to define these other types of job records later in this<br />

chapter. Now press the Clear key to return to the <strong>Job</strong> Maintenance menu.<br />

3.9.2 Checking Default Values <strong>for</strong> <strong>Job</strong> Base Records<br />

Just as some schedule options serve as defaults <strong>for</strong> jobs, installation options<br />

supply defaults <strong>for</strong> schedules. It can get confusing because job defaults will<br />

vary <strong>for</strong> different schedules. Clearly, you need a simple way of determining<br />

what defaults apply to a job. Instead of worrying about what the install and<br />

schedule defaults are, choose an easier way: create a dummy job called<br />

DEFAULTS <strong>for</strong> every schedule and then glance at the values <strong>Unicenter</strong><br />

<strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> supplies. Eventually, you will want to delete these dummy<br />

records because they take unnecessary space in your database.<br />

The job that you just defined consists of defaults, so display that job's base<br />

record. The first three functions on the <strong>Job</strong> Maintenance menu allow you to<br />

display a job base record:<br />
