Issue/Introduction

Support,

  We are adding our 2021 Standard calendars.  As you know when you commit the Standard calendar for the 2021 dates it does a commit against all jobs defined to that calendar.  So if a job has date and time conditions and uses the Standard Calendar you are updating when you do the commit it adjust the Next Start Date/Time to the next scheduled date and time.  So if the job was waiting today on dependencies it skips ahead to the next scheduled date and time skipping the current run.  I'm absolutely positive on this.

My question is this.  If I have an extended calendar defined that uses a Standard calendar in it's calendar definition (to exclude holidays), when is this updated if I do the commit on the updated Standard calendar?

 

Environment

Release : 11.3.6

Component : CA Workload Automation AE (AutoSys)

Resolution

When the holiday calendar used by the extended calendar is updated, next start times of jobs that use the extended calendar are also updated accordingly.
