Long-term plan messages

Many messages issued by the long-term planning process can be dismissed immediately; others will require action. For example, a message indicating that a daily application could not find a once-a-year dependency is not considered an issue for 364 days of the year. Warning messages are generated for all occurrences that have been manually added or changed. Messages are also generated if the long-term plan planning process detects a period definition that has no future origin dates.

Warning messages are generated for all run cycles with an EVERY end time inconsistent with the application calendar work day end time. In this case, the EVERY end time is automatically reset by the long-term plan batch job to the latest valid value possible. For details, see Specifying the EVERY options for a run cycle.

Messages are written to the message-log data set defined by the EQQMLOG DD statement.
