ADRUN - Run cycle segment
The run cycle part of an application description. A run cycle is based either on offsets or on rules. The segment contains the fixed part plus either run cycle offsets or a rule definition.
- Type
- Required input. For run cycles based on offsets, type is:
- N
- Normal run cycle that identifies times and days when the application runs.
- X
- Negative run cycle that identifies times and days when the application does not run. If you specify a particular day and time as a negative run cycle, no occurrences of the application are generated for that day and time, regardless of what is generated by a normal or regular run cycle. Run cycles are used in conjunction; negative run cycles are used to suppress run days generated by normal or regular run cycles.
For run cycles based on rules, type is:
- R
- Regular run cycle that identifies times and days when the application runs.
- E
- Exclusion run cycle that identifies times and days when the application does not run. If you specify a particular day and time as an exclusion run cycle, no occurrences of the application are generated for that day and time, regardless of what is generated by a regular or normal run cycle. Run cycles are used in conjunction; exclusion run cycles are used to suppress run days generated by regular or normal run cycles.
- Free day rule
- Required input for all run cycles, which indicates how run days
are treated:
- E
- Free days excluded; only work days are taken into account
- 1
- Free days included; run on the nearest day before the free day
- 2
- Free days included; run on the nearest day after the free day
- 3
- Free days included; run on the free day
- 4
- Free days included; do not run at all.

Run cycle offsets are an array of positive fullwords. ADRINPOS and ADRINNEG identify the number of entries in the array. The positive offsets are first.
If the total number of offsets is 24 or less, the offsets are also found in the ADRIAD array. ADRIAD is an array of 24 integer values that specify the start days within the period. Each nonzero value defines a day that the run cycle selects; that is, when the application runs if ADRTYPE is N, or does not run if ADRTYPE is X. The first day of the period is specified by 1 and the last day by -1. The first zero value ends the array.

For a rule-based run cycle, ADRIRDLEN identifies the length of the rule definition. The ADRIADALL structure contains a fullword copy of ADRIRDLEN (ADRULEL), which is followed by the rule text. ADRULEL must specify the same length as ADRIRDLEN. You can insert comments or extra blanks when creating a rule, but these characters are not saved in the AD database.
