Issue/Introduction
We are trying to set up some jobs so that we get notified if they are late to start or complete.
From looking at the documentation the settings must_start_times and must_complete_times could be used.
But when we attempt to use them we see errors like the following:
CAUAJM_I_50323 Inserting/Updating job: job123
CAUAJM_E_18940 JIL keywords must_start_times and/or must_complete_times requires JIL keyword start_times or start_mins
CAUAJM_E_10302 Database Change WAS NOT successful.
Environment
Workload Automation AE
Resolution
The job the client was attempting to use the "must" setting for was in a boxjob.
While the box had date_conditions and start_times, the inner job did not.
The fields date_conditions and either start_times or start_mins are required in order to use the must_start_times and must_complete_times for a given job.
Valid usage:
insert_job: job1
job_type: b
date_conditions: 1
days_of_week: all
start_times: "09:00"
...
insert_job: job2
job_type: c
command: /opt/some_transaction.sh
machine: localhost
box_name: job1
date_conditions: 1
days_of_week: all
start_times: "09:03"
must_start_times: "09:05"
Invalid usage:
insert_job: job1
job_type: b
date_conditions: 1
days_of_week: all
start_times: "09:00"
...
insert_job: job2
job_type: c
command: /opt/some_transaction.sh
machine: localhost
box_name: job1
must_start_times: "09:05"
