Issue/Introduction
I have two applications. One application will run every 30 mins from 9am until 1600 hrs. When another daily application starts it should complete before 2 jobs in the cyclical application should run again. Need to stop the 2 jobs and start them again after daily application completes.
Environment
Release : 12.0
Component : CA ESP WORKLOAD AUTOMATION
Cause
Jobs cannot run during the execution of a daily batch process.
Resolution
First I created a Global Variable Table called TESTGVT
vtlist testgvt
Global Variable Table TESTGVT
Created at 10.52.07 on TUESDAY MAY 1ST, 2012 by BABRIA2
Last update at 14.46.49 on MONDAY AUGUST 2ND, 2021
Currently 1 variable, 0 triggers
Table size 520, 152 bytes imbedded free space
STATUS='AVAIL'
Next in my application I get the variable during PROCESS phase of the application
and rtigger the application.
IF ESP_APPL_PROC=1 THEN
VGET (STATUS) TABLE(TESTGVT)
JOB RCBJOBE.%ESPATIME
IF %STATUS = 'UNAVAIL' THEN DO
NORUN DAILY
ELSE DO
RUN DAILY
ENDDO
RELEASE RCBJOBA
SE '%STATUS' U(BABRI02)
ENDJOB
JOB RCBJOBA
RUN DAILY
RELEASE RCBJOBB
ENDJOB
JOB RCBJOBB
RUN DAILY
RELEASE RCBJOBC
ENDJOB
JOB RCBJOBC
RUN DAILY
ENDJOB
I also created an application with the TASK processes that will set the variable unavail and avail.
While job RCBJOBH is running the variable status is set to UNAVAIL.
APPL TESTRUNF HOLD
JCLLIB 'BABRI02.ESP.JCLLIB'
COPYJCL 'BABRI02.ESP.COPYJCL'
TEMPLIB 'BABRI02.ESP.TEMPLIB'
OPTIONS RESTARTSTEP
JOB SETVAR.UNAVAIL SELFCOMPLETING TASK PROCESS
RUN DAILY
VGET (STATUS) TABLE(TESTGVT) CLANG
VSET STATUS UNAVAIL TABLE(TESTGVT)
RELEASE RCBJOBB
ENDJOB
JOB RCBJOBH
RUN DAILY
RELEASE SETVAR.AVAIL
ENDJOB
JOB SETVAR.AVAIL SELFCOMPLETING TASK PROCESS
RUN DAILY
VGET (STATUS) TABLE(TESTGVT) CLANG
VSET STATUS AVAIL TABLE(TESTGVT)
ENDJOB
