Step 5. Starting and
stopping the job throttling feature
About this task
To start job throttling, run
the jobthrottling executable file related to the operating system you are using.
Optionally, you can create an HCL Workload Automation
job that starts the job throttler.
Note: On Windows systems using a single-byte character language,
to start job throttling from a command prompt ensure that the DOS shell font is not Lucida
Console. Ensure also that you set the HCL Workload Automation environment by entering the
following command:

the workstation with the r3batch access method.
-scratch
If you enabled the job throttler to send data
to CCMS (for details,
see Sending data from job throttling to the CCMS Monitoring Architecture), the job throttler
starts and resets the attribute MTE named JT total released
jobs to 0. If you do not specify -scratch, the job
throttler starts and increments the JT total released jobs.
This parameter is optional, and has effect only if the job throttler
sent its data to CCMS at least once before.
To know the syntax for the jobthrottling command,
run the command as follows:
To stop the job throttler,
enter the following command (optionally, you can create an HCL Workload Automation job that stops the job throttler):
