3.4.9 Start condition and number of logs to keep
A generation is created whenever a jobnet is registered for execution. The setting that specifies how many generations of execution results to save is called the number of logs to keep. It can be set only for a root jobnet. You can view execution results for the set number of generations in JP1/AJS3 - View or by running the ajsshow command. Jobnet generations are managed so that past execution results are automatically deleted when they exceed the set number of logs to keep.
When a jobnet has a start condition, jobnet generation management applies to all generations, including both monitoring generations and execution generations. For details about managing the execution logs of a jobnet that has a start condition, see 4.2.3(3) Examples of managing saved generations for a jobnet with a start condition.
If you wish, after installation you can switch the generation management method. To do so, set the SAVEGENTYPE environment setting parameter. For details about this parameter, see 2.2 Setting up the scheduler service environment in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Configuration Guide 2.
- Upgrade installation from version 8 or earlier
-
If you have performed an upgrade installation from version 8 or earlier, the method for managing the number of logs to keep differs from the method used when version 9 or later is installed. For details, see 4.2.3(3)(b) Saved-generation management by using the individual management method.
You can also switch from the method for managing the number of logs to keep used in version 8 and earlier to the method used in version 9 and later. However, the processing time needed to complete the switch could impact on operations. For the procedure and cautionary notes, see 4.2.3(4) Notes applying when JP1/AJS3 has been upgraded from JP1 Version 8 or an earlier version of JP1/AJS2.
