This Month's Tool Tip

How to Modify the Job Process Attributes

SUMMARY

This article describes how to change the attributes of the process created to start and run the job.

MORE INFORMATION

EnterpriseSCHEDULE creates a process to start a job.  The submit tab of the Job Properties box lists the options for the job process, including what Operating System (OS) and node the job will run on, and user id the job will under. 

CHANGING THE USER THE JOB RUNS UNDER

Enter the user name you want the job to run under in User name field.  The user name field will default to the user creating the job.  Depending on your privileges you may or may not be able to change the User name field.

CHANGING THE COMMAND SHELL

Select the script from the Command shell drop down in the Submit parameters to match what is used in the Job commands.  In UNIX/LINUX, you can execute jobs in another shell script, like C shell or Korn shell, or a Command Language Interpreter (CLI), like Perl.  In Windows, Windows batch file, Visual Basic Script (VBS), and others are available.

EnterpriseBACKUP

Besides OpenVMS system backup, EnterpriseBACKUP also provides and online media database. The MEDIA database is accessible on-line, allowing you to find any particular medium and what files it contains at any time, without having to mount each medium or rely on a manually updated information system. The database consists of information about every tape and removable disk or other storage device in the library. Whenever a medium is modified, the on-line information is automatically updated to reflect the new contents. There are two types of informational files about media: The header information file contains information about each medium, tape type, length, density, format, disk size, protection, initialization and availability status.

The contents information file is an optional on-line file that lists the contents of each medium, all of the files written on the medium and information about each file (creation date, version number, size). It is necessary to include a file specification in the DIRECTORY command to access the contents information file. Both header and contents information files can be accessed using the MEDIA command DIRECTORY.
