JP1 Version 12 JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Overview


1.2.4 Scheduler control

Organization of this subsection

(1) Execution order control

JP1/AJS3 executes applications according to a defined sequence of jobs and jobnets. As each job or jobnet finishes, the next process starts running automatically, according to the jobnet definitions.

Using this feature, you can change subsequent processing, depending on the result of the preceding job. You can also define a job to be executed only if the preceding job terminates abnormally.

(2) Execution schedule management

JP1/AJS3 executes processing according to the schedule defined for a jobnet.

A schedule consists of a calendar that defines working days and non-working days for running the application, together with schedule rules that define the execution start time and processing cycle. JP1/AJS3 determines the jobnet's execution schedule from these two sets of information.

You can also define an execution trigger (event) for an application. The application will start running whenever that event occurs.
