CA 7 Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

Under ControlM, a QUIESTCTIME command can be used to stop submission of jobs that would still be running at the time of a planned system shutdown. Does CA 7 have a similar function? 

 

 

Environment

Release : 12.1

Resolution

You can use the CA 7  STOP  command to halt all movement of jobs.

 

STOP Command Examples:

STOP,Q=REQ  - Causes the request queue to be suspended.

STOP,Q=RDY  - Causes the ready queue to be suspended.

STOP,Q=ALL   - Causes both the request and ready queues to be suspended.

 

After your IPL, before starting CA 7, use a STOPQ=YES on the SCHEDULE statement in the init file. When you are ready for jobs to submit, you can then do a START, Q=ALL command.

CA 7 does not stop jobs from being submitted based on historical run times.
