Creating run cycles for job descriptions
You can specify up to six run cycles on the CREATING A JOB panel:
RUN CYCLES ===> MON_____ - _001 TUE_____ - _001 WED_____ - _001 THU_____ - _001 FRI_____ - _001 SAT_____ - _001 +
If you are not familiar with run cycles, see Specifying when your application should be scheduled. You can specify
up to six periods and offsets, as shown in Specifying run
cycles for a job description, if these run cycles have:
- The same in-effect dates as the job description
- The same input arrival times and deadline times as the job description (as specified in the RUN TIME FROM – TO field)
- No more than one offset specified
- Free-day rule E (exclude free days)
The use of run cycle groups is not supported in job descriptions.
If you want to create more than six run cycles, rule-based run cycles, or run cycles without these restrictions, enter the RUN command. The RUN CYCLES panel (EQQAMRPL - Run cycles ) is displayed, where you can specify run cycles in the standard way.
If you specify run cycles with the RUN command, a plus sign (+) is displayed when you return to the CREATING A JOB panel, as shown in Specifying run cycles for a job description.
