Issue/Introduction

Is there a way to generate the total number of jobs in the scheduler database?

Environment

Release : 3.1

Component : CA JOB MANAGEMENT FOR OPENVMS

Resolution

This can be done while the product is on-line.

Execute the following DCL command while logged into an account that has read access to all jobs in the database, such as the SYSTEM account:

$ pipe sched  show  job  *=*  |  search  sys$input   vms_command/noout/stat

It will produce output similar to the following:

Files searched:                            1       Buffered I/O count:       118
Records searched:                 114       Direct I/O count:                0
Characters searched:          5557       Page faults:                       29
Records matched:                      8       Elapsed CPU time:           0 00:00:00.00
Lines printed:                              0       Elapsed time:                   0 00:00:00.05

 

The value contained in the field labeled "Records matched" is the total number of jobs in the database.
