ESPM601E NO MORE TB DATES DEFINED 
ESPM532W EVENT <event name> SUSPENDED 
 

Environment

Workload Automation ESP Edition

Cause

There should be at least an extra matching date for the special day defined.

Resolution

It's working as designed.

When the ESP event manager tried to update the value on STARTING parm, it couldn't find an available date, so it issued the errors and suspended the event.

The solution is to define matching special days, like Dec 18 2019.
