9.4 Notes when running anti-virus software

If anti-virus software imposes an exclusive control lock on a file or folder used by JP1/AJS3, the following problems might arise:

• JP1/AJS3 does not start.

  An exclusive control lock placed on a definition file that JP1/AJS3 references at startup might prevent JP1/AJS3 from starting.

• Jobs fail to execute or are delayed.

  An exclusive control lock placed on a file needed to execute a job might prevent a job from starting, cause it to terminate abnormally, or delay its execution. This problem can affect any job defined in JP1/AJS3.

• JP1/AJS3 cannot generate execution schedules.

  An exclusive control lock placed on the scheduler database or a file in the job error information directory might prevent JP1/AJS3 from generating a job schedule, and prevent jobs from running as scheduled.

• You cannot change definitions.

  An exclusive control lock placed on a JP1/AJS3 definition file might prevent you from adding or changing a job definition.

• JP1/AJS3 cannot output log data.

  An exclusive control lock placed on a JP1/AJS3 log file might prevent JP1/AJS3 from outputting log data, and make it difficult to troubleshoot errors.

• JP1/AJS3 commands end abnormally.

  An exclusive control lock placed on a file used by a JP1/AJS3 command might cause the command to end abnormally.

If you run a virus check during JP1/AJS3 operation, exclude the following files and folders. If you run a virus check while JP1/AJS3 is stopped, make sure that the anti-virus program has finished checking the following files and folders before you restart JP1/AJS3.
