CA Workload Automation iDash for CA 7
Issue/Introduction
We have a key batch run setup with 3 iDash definitions to handle different runs of the week.
Schid=25 completes in early hours of Tue-Sat Schid=26 completes Sunday morning and Schid=27 Monday morning.
This weekend we had issues with this batch suite on Saturday (schid=26) and Sunday (schid=26) morning - but with the Saturday mornings warning of a "SLA_AT_RISK_END" and allowing time to react but on Sunday's version only a "PREDICTED_MISSED_END" was issued - followed by "SLA_MISSED_END" which alerted too late for any preventive actions to take place

On Saturday with the "SLA_AT_RISK_END" being produced and generating an alert it provided time to respond
But on the Sunday morning the first and only alert was 06:02 - 2 minutes after the SLA has breached.
I don't believe we create alerts from "SLA_PREDICTED_MISSED_END" - but we do from "SLA_AT_RISK_END"
Are you able to say why there would have been no "SLA_AT_RISK_END" message from the Sunday morning run?
