The preparation for executing a custom PC job or a custom Unix job is registering the target custom PC job or custom Unix job. Read the following for how to register a custom PC job or a custom Unix job.

You need to prepare a GIF file for an icon.
Prepare a GIF file that represents an icon used to display the custom PC job or custom Unix job in the Jobnet Editor and Jobnet Monitor windows. For details on the format of the GIF file, see 3.3.1 Preparing the gif file for icons.

You need to register the target custom PC job or custom Unix job.
You can define custom PC jobs and custom Unix jobs in a jobnet in the same way you can define PC jobs and Unix jobs. However, immediately after the installation, the icons of custom PC jobs or custom Unix jobs are not displayed in the Custom Jobs page in the icon list in the Jobnet Editor window. To add a custom PC job icon or a custom Unix job icon in the Custom Jobs page or display it in the map area in the Jobnet Editor window or the Jobnet Monitor window, you need to register the target custom PC job or custom Unix job in each host where JP1/AJS3 - View is installed. For details, see 3.3 Registering custom PC jobs or custom Unix jobs.

A custom PC job or custom Unix job does not require the installation of an executable program or definition program.
