G.4 Cautionary notes on using JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition

This section describes points to note when using JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Installing JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition in an overwrite installation

If you install JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition in an overwrite installation or upgrade installation, the number of executed jobs is not inherited.

(2) Change of the system time

Changing the system time on a computer where JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition is running can affect the number of jobs executed per day. If you change the system time, note the following points:

(3) Cautionary notes on disaster recovery operation

The following describes points to note when using JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition in the disaster recovery mode.

For details about the disaster recovery operation, see 11. Disaster Recovery in JP1/AJS3 in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Administration Guide.

JP1/AJS3 - Agent Minimal Edition manages the number of executed jobs for each computer where an agent host is installed. Therefore, how to count the number of executed jobs after switching over operation to a remote site differs depending on whether the agent host is shared by the main site and a remote site.

(a) In the case of unshared agent type

In a system configuration of unshared agent type, the number of executed jobs is not inherited when operation is switched over from the main site to a remote site. At the remote site to which operation was switched over, a maximum of 10 jobs can be executed per day.

The following figure shows an example of switching over operation to a remote site in a system configuration of unshared agent type.

Figure G‒3: Switching over operation to a remote site in a system configuration of unshared agent type

[Figure]

If, after a job has been executed at the main site, operation is switched over to a remote site, and then the job is re-executed at the remote site, the number of executed jobs is incremented.

(b) In the case of shared agent type

In a system configuration of shared agent type, the number of executed jobs is inherited when operation is switched over from the main site to a remote site.

The following figure shows an example of switching over operation to a remote site in a system configuration of shared agent type.

Assume that the logical host name of JP1/AJS3 - Manager is different between the main site and remote site. In such a case, if, after a job has been executed at the main site, operation is switched over to a remote site, and then the job is re-executed at the remote site, the number of executed jobs is incremented.
