DURUNIT – Duration unit for Batch Loader

States the unit to specify durations.

You can use either of the following values:
  • MINUTES
  • SECONDS (default)

Setting this option determines how the duration against operations and the default duration for workstations is managed.

Setting it to MINUTES means that the DURATION keyword on the ADOP and WSSTART Batch Loader statements is output in minutes and is considered to be Minutes when used as input. Setting it to SECONDS means that the DURATION keyword is output and input in seconds (this is the default).

Setting the DURUNIT keyword will also set the PIF option DURSEC accordingly, to be in line with the DURUNIT setting. There is no need to specify the PIF DURSEC option, but if you do the Workload Automation Programming Language DURUNIT setting is changed to the appropriate setting to match it.
