12.4.28 Detailed Definition - [Interval Control] dialog box

Specify a unit name. Use a character string of up to 30 bytes. The default is Interval-Control.

Specify a comment for the unit. Use a character string of up to 80 bytes. The default is a blank.

Specify the execution agent name to be assigned the task of controlling an execution interval. Use a character string of up to 255 bytes. If the version of the connection-target JP1/AJS3 - Manager is 09-50 or later, you can specify a macro variable instead. The default is a blank.

This item appears as a text box when either of the following applies:

• The version of JP1/AJS - View or the connection-target JP1/AJS - Manager is earlier than 09-50

• The unit is being defined under a remote jobnet

Otherwise, this item appears as a combo box in which you can select an execution agent. You can also directly enter an execution agent name into the combo box. The content of the list component of the combo box differs depending on whether execution agent profiles are enabled, and the contents of those profiles.

When execution agent profiles are disabled

The list is empty.

When execution agent profiles are enabled

• If the specified job is associated with an execution agent profile

  The list displays the execution agents permitted for the specified job.

• If the specified job is not associated with an execution agent profile

  If the upper-level unit is associated with an execution agent profile, the list displays the execution agents permitted for the upper-level unit.

  If the upper-level unit is not associated with an execution agent profile, the list will be empty.

For details about execution agents, see 5.1.1 Execution agents in the manual JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Overview.

Cautionary notes

• If you leave this text box blank, the system inherits the specification of the upper-level jobnet.

  If an execution agent group for an upper-level jobnet has been specified, the system uses the execution agent group as the execution agent.

  Because event jobs do not support an execution agent group, explicitly specify an execution agent name in Exec-agent. For details about the operation performed if an execution agent group is specified for an event job, see 7.6 Notes on using event jobs in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Work Tasks) Guide.

• When you copy and paste a cell in Excel, a space may be appended to the end of the pasted text. In such a case, delete the space.

Specify information to be inherited by the subsequent job or jobnet. If you click the Pass Info button, the Detailed Definition - [Interval Control] - [Passing Information] dialog box appears. For more information, see 12.4.18 Detailed Definition - [event-job-icon-name] - [Passing Information] dialog box. This button is at the bottom of the dialog box.

Specify the wait time in minutes. You can set 1 to 1,440 minutes. The default is 10 minutes. You cannot omit this item.

Specify whether to satisfy the start condition as soon as monitoring starts. You can specify No or Yes. The default is No.

This item is only available when the interval control job is defined as a start condition (.CONDITION).

If you copy or move the interval control job to a jobnet other than .CONDITION, No is specified regardless of the setting in Expire right after starting, and this item becomes inactive.

Specify whether to place the unit in the hold status in advance. You can specify No or Yes. The default is No.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

Set the unit type to Normal or Recovery. The default is Normal.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

Select whether to set a time-out period for job execution. You can specify No or Yes. The default is No.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

If you select Yes in Set timeout period, specify a time-out period in minutes. You can set 1 to 1,440 minutes. The default is a blank.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

If you select Yes for Set timeout period, select the status into which the event job is to be placed after the timeout period elapses. You can specify Killed, Ended normally, Ended with warning, and Ended abnormally. The default is Killed.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

Specify whether to monitor delayed end of jobs based on time required for execution. Select the Time-required-for-execution check box to monitor delayed end of jobs. The check box is not selected by default.

When you select the Time-required-for-execution check box, specify the time required for execution for a job from 1 to 1,440 (in minutes).

This section appears for the JP1/AJS3 - View, or JP1/AJS2 - View of version 08-50 or later. For details about cautionary notes on monitoring of delayed end of jobs based on time required for execution, see 5.1.3 End delay monitoring based on time-required-for-execution in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Work Tasks) Guide.

This item is unavailable when the interval control job is defined as a start condition.

Even if you specify the owner, the owner will become invalid when the event job is executed.

Even if you specify the JP1 resource group, the JP1 resource group will become invalid when the event job is executed.

Even if you specify the user who executes the job, the user will become invalid when the event job is executed. The system uses the user authority activating JP1/AJS3 to execute the event job.
