4.2 Displaying Status<br />

Schedules and jobs that are available as soon as autoscan is complete are<br />

usually those without defined start times, predecessors, or resources. All<br />

schedules and jobs go into one of these primary queues:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

The active queue contains schedules and jobs waiting until they are<br />

available <strong>for</strong> processing. They remain in the active queue during and after<br />

processing.<br />

The inactive queue contains schedules and jobs that were selected because<br />

of REQUESTED or that are successors to jobs or schedules that were<br />

selected <strong>for</strong> the reason REQUESTED, as well as jobs that have been held or<br />

canceled. See the topic On-Request Schedules and <strong>Job</strong>s in the chapter<br />

"Techniques". REQUESTED schedules and jobs can be activated by the<br />

REQUEST or SREQ commands.<br />

All <strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong>'s queues are listed on the Online Status panel. To<br />

display all the schedules and jobs in a queue, place your cursor next to the<br />

queue you want to display and press Enter.<br />

<strong>Unicenter</strong> <strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> gives you several methods of tailoring status displays<br />

to your specific needs. You can display:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

Different kinds of data (full status descriptions, actual versus expected end<br />

times, past histories of job execution)<br />

For certain groups of schedules or jobs<br />

Sequenced alphabetically or in order of execution priority<br />

We recommend that you try limiting your displays to:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

Specific schedules or jobs<br />

A station<br />

A SYSID<br />

Schedules or jobs beginning or ending with a certain character string<br />

A specific node in your network of data centers<br />

or any combination of these. Limiting the display by specifying schedule name<br />

or job name decreases response time in all cases except where a mask character<br />

is used in the first character position.<br />

The next topic explains how to tailor status displays to your specific needs.<br />

Be<strong>for</strong>e proceeding to that topic, focus first on understanding the different types<br />

of queues you can monitor. The diagram following shows how <strong>Unicenter</strong><br />

<strong>CA</strong>-<strong>Scheduler</strong> classifies jobs into queues.<br />
