4.5.7 Temporarily changing the delay monitor settings of a jobnet
You can temporarily change the delay monitor settings for a jobnet.
However, you cannot temporarily change the start delay time of a jobnet that is already running. If a jobnet is already running, you cannot change the start delay and end delay times and the time required for execution for the jobnet at the same time. Temporarily changing the delay monitor settings for a jobnet that has already terminated has no effect.
If you temporarily change the end delay time or the time required for execution of a jobnet that is already running, the decision on whether to monitor delays is based on whether a delay was detected before the change.
-
If no delay was detected before the temporary change:
Detect the end delay when the temporarily changed delay time is reached.
-
If a delay was detected before the temporary change:
Do not detect the end delay, even on reaching the temporarily changed delay time.
You can select any of the following monitoring methods to monitor for a delayed start or delayed end.
-
Absolute time
-
Relative from start of root jobnet
-
Relative from start of upper-l jobnet
-
Relative from start of the jobnet
-
Do not monitor
With absolute time, specify a value between 00:00 and 47:59. With relative time, specify a value between 0 and 2,879 minutes. Either will result in the application of a delay time that falls within one day of the start day of the specified jobnet.
You can also monitor delay based on the time required for execution of the jobnet. You can set the time required for execution to a value between 1 and 2,879 minutes. With this monitoring method, the delay time is applied regardless of whether it falls within one day of the specified start day for the jobnet.
You can perform this operation using either the GUI, or the ajsplan command. For details on using the GUI, see 9.7 Temporarily changing the delay monitor date and time of jobnets in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Operator's Guide. Alternatively, for details on the ajsplan command, see the description of ajsplan in 2. Commands in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Command Reference 1.
