Specifying when your application should be scheduled

When you create an application that is not part of a group, and when you create a group, specify when HCL Workload Automation for Z is to schedule the application or group by creating one or more run cycles. If you do not create a run cycle, the application can still be run on demand, and added to the plans by:

Panel users (ISPF or Dynamic Workload Console)
The program interface (PIF)
Event-triggered tracking (ETT), or
Automatic recovery, which adds only to the current plan

For example, an application to recover a database is added to the current plan only when required.

To add and run a group on demand through the panel:

Add a member to it.
Specify option G on panel EQQMAADL.

For details, see Adding an application group to the current plan.
