Notes

• Before executing this command, you must start JP1/AJS3.

  For UNIX, use the jajs_spmd command to start the JP1/AJS3 process.

  For Windows, use the Service dialog box or the Service window to start the JP1/AJS3 service.

• If you move the system date or time backward, cold-start the entire JP1/AJS3 system.

• If you use the ajslocaldate command to change the local date and time of a scheduler service, cold-start the scheduler service.

• This command terminates abnormally if a scheduler service is already started.

• If neither the -c nor -R option is specified, the scheduler service is warm-started.

• When you have to cold start a scheduler service if a failure occurs, we recommend that you collect necessary log information beforehand. For how to collect log information, see 1.3 Data to be collected when a problem occurs in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Troubleshooting and 1.4 Collecting data for troubleshooting in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Troubleshooting.

• The scheduler service will not start if the environment settings^# are invalid.

  The environment settings for the scheduler service.

• If you want to cold start the scheduler service which uses the ISAM database, ensure that no process is accessing the database (you have not used any JP1/AJS3 command after logging off JP1/AJS3 - View) before attempting the cold start. If any process is accessing the database, the system fails to erase registered information so that it cannot start the service, resulting in abnormal end with the KAVS0218-E The database is still being accessed, so the cold start of the scheduler service (scheduler-service-name) ended abnormally. error message output to the Windows event log or Syslog.

• If you perform a hot start with the -R option specified or a warm start for the scheduler service and cannot acquire the status of a job, the job might have been placed in Unknown end status and then terminated. For details about the conditions when the job status cannot be acquired, see the Job (standard job, action job, custom job) column in Table 7-3 Jobnet and job statuses when a hot-start is performed (-hot) or Table 7-4 Jobnet and job statuses when a warm-start is performed (-warm) in 7.2.1(3) Jobnet and job statuses for each start mode in the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Administration Guide.

• When you use this command to start the scheduler service, the value of the OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter has no effect. Instead, execution follows ajsstart command operation. The following table shows the relationship between the OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter and the ajsstart command options.

  Table 2‒21: Relationship between the OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter and ajsstart command options

  OVERSCHEDULE setting	ajsstart command options
  The OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter is set to exec.	The -t and -o options are not specified.
  The OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter is set to skip.	The -o option is specified.
  The OVERSCHEDULE environment setting parameter is set to plan.	The -t option is specified.

• You cannot execute this command together with any of the following commands on the same logical host:

  ajsprofalter command

  ajsembdbstart command

  ajsembdbstop command

  ajsstart command

  ajsstop command

  jajs_hstd command

  jajs_hstd_stop command
