Unicenter CA-Scheduler Job Management for VSE User Guide

3.9 Defining Jobs
DESTINATIONS and DELIVERABLES allow you to record where to send the
output for this job. Notice that the panel preceding shows IH7D02 produces
backup tapes for delivery to room 112. These fields are only used in reports.
Next, create the information record shown preceding. As you tab from field to
field, type in the data displayed on the panel preceding. After you have input
that information, you are ready to create the information record.
After you have filled in the panel, press Enter to save the information record
for that job. Unicenter CA-Scheduler confirms that it stored that information by
displaying the following panel:
SCHD-UTIL SCHDUTIL OUTPUT Scheduler
===> MASTER - WR
CONNECT : 4
DEFINE JIR NAME=IH7D2,JNO-1,STATION=4,SCHEDULE=BACKUP,
DESC='JUST WHAT IS CHANGED',COMMENT='MON-THU',DEST1='RM112',
DEL1='BACKUP TAPES'
CACU18I JIR IH7D2 HAS BEEN ADDED
PF1=HELP
To view the next panel, press Enter. That displays the panel that defines the
job's message record.
3.9.4.4 Creating a Job Message Record
The job's message record extends Unicenter CA-Scheduler's progress
notification capability beyond schedules to jobs. By defining this record, you
can notify users of the progress made by an individual job:
■
■
■
■
■
When jobs start or end
Or only when they end unsuccessfully
When they are late starting or ending
When jobs require human intervention
When jobs run too long
So the schedule's message record identifies who needs to be notified about a
schedule's progress while a job's message record specifies who to tell about a
job's progress.
