4.4.2 Environment settings related to event job activation

This subsection describes the environment settings related to starting event jobs in a JP1/AJS3 - Agent host.

For details about performing these settings, see the following references as required:

For details about specific settings (environment setting parameters), see 2.4 Setting up the event/action control environment in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Configuration Guide 2.

If using event jobs, determine the settings for JP1/AJS3 - Agent, referring to the recommended values and setting criteria given in the following table.

Table 4-14 Environment settings related to event job activation (JP1/AJS3 - Agent)

Setting description and parameter Criterion for changing the setting Recommended value When the setting takes effect
Name of the directory for inherited event job information

Environment setting parameter:
EvjobInfFile
Set this parameter if you want files of inherited information, received by a Receive Mail job or Receive MQ Message job, to be output to a folder other than the default folder. Set this parameter also if using a cluster system. Leave blank. The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
Name of the directory for wait information files

Environment setting parameter:
WaitInfFileOutDir
Set this parameter if you want to output wait information (information such as the status of events issued in an event job or being monitored in job start conditions) to a folder other than the default folder. Set this parameter also if using a cluster system. Leave blank. The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
Retention of event information at failover

Environment setting parameter:
HowUseInfWhenHA
Change the setting if you want to discard events left unreported to JP1/AJS3 - Manager when the system is failed over without being shutdown. Y (retain) The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
Retention of event information at system shutdown

Environment setting parameter:
InformationWhenShutDown
Change the setting if you want to discard events left unreported to JP1/AJS3 - Manager at system shutdown when the system is subsequently restarted. K (report again) The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
Inheritance of Monitoring Files job information

Environment setting parameter:
FilewatchinfContinue
Change the setting to resume monitoring at system restart without inheriting the previous monitoring status of a Monitoring Files job that is defined in a start condition and was being executed when the system was shut down. Determine according to your system operation. The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
File update mode

Environment setting parameter:
FileWriteMode
Set sync to update event job information and wait information files in synchronous write mode. This setting improves reliability, but at a performance cost. Choose sync when reliability is paramount, as in a cluster system, for example.
Set nosync to update event job information and wait information files by writing to the disk using OS buffering, without synchronizing with JP1/AJS3 processes. This setting gives better performance than sync, but if a system failure occurs, the data might be inconsistent and events might be lost.
Choose the appropriate write mode according to your performance, reliability, and operational requirements.
Specify nosync for a physical host.
In a cluster system, specify sync.
The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts
Processing when a detailed process ends

Environment setting parameter:
EVProcessHA
Change the setting to allow degraded operation without ending the event/action control agent process when a detailed process of the event/action control is terminated by a signal. Determine according to your system operation. The next time the JP1/AJS3 service starts

Determine the JP1/AJS3 - Agent settings for linking to a mail system, referring to the recommended values and setting criteria given in the tables below.

To use mail system linkage with the JP1/AJS3 service, specify the profile created by the local user.

Note 2:
If multiple users will be using mail system linkage on the desktop, create the same profile with the same profile name for each user.
