4.2.1 Managing the scheduled generations of a jobnet

The forthcoming generations of a jobnet registered for execution are known as scheduled generations.

When you register a jobnet for planned execution, an initial scheduled generation is created at registration, and each subsequent scheduled generation is created as the previous generation starts running.

When you register a jobnet for period-based fixed execution, the runs that fall within the specified schedule period, calculated from the schedule definition and calendar definitions, will be the scheduled generations. When you register a jobnet for generation-based fixed execution, the runs up to the specified generation count, calculated from the schedule definition and calendar definitions, will be the scheduled generations.

When a jobnet has a preset start condition, the next scheduled generation is created when the jobnet enters Now monitoring status. For details on start conditions, see 3.4 Defining a start condition and 4.2.3(3) Examples of managing saved generations for a jobnet with a start condition.
