This service is used to define/maintain job parameters for jobs that are to use Adabas Transaction Manager.
Note:
See section Parameters for a complete description
of all job parameters.
Note:
Job parameters are shared between all installed optional products, and
can be defined by any Online Services application (SYSCOR, SYSAVI, SYSAFP,
SYSATM).
To display a list of existing jobs

Press PF11 to view the Adabas add-on products for which a job parameter is currently defined, and then press PF11 again in order to modify the parameters related to that product.
Press PF8 to move to the next page, or use the Reposition field to position anywhere within the list.
A set of job parameters includes the name of the Adabas System Coordinator group in which the job will execute. You must define the group before you create any ATM job parameters that include the name of the group. Refer to the Adabas System Coordinator documentation for details of groups, and how to define them.
To add a new job parameter definition
Once you have defined your System Coordinator group, or groups, navigate to ATM’s Job Parameters screen, and press PF10.
The following window will appear:

Command ==>
PF1 Help PF3 Exit |
In the field Job Name, enter the name of the job. If you enter the value D in this field, a default job name will be assigned according to the job type that you select. Default job definitions are not available for job type CICS Cluster.
A job name may contain one or more asterisks (*) to indicate a wild card. For example, the job parameters with the name CICS**PR will be counted as a match for any job with the value CICS in positions 1-4 and the value PR in positions 7-8, no matter what the characters are in positions 5-6. If an asterisk (*) is the last character in a job name, the remainder of positions in the name through the eighth are padded with asterisks.
Job parameters are always matched on type. The order of search within type is
a. Match on exact job name.
b. Match on wild card definitions.
c. Use the default for the job type, if one has been defined.
Note:
The number of wild card job names defined for a job type has a
direct effect on the number of Adabas commands needed to establish the job
parameters at initialization. This is particularly relevant to batch jobs that
process relatively few Adabas commands.
Select a job type for the job from the list provided.
Each different job type has different characteristics, so it is important to select the correct type.
Note:
Select the job type “CICS” if CICS/MRO is to be used without
dynamic transaction routing, or for other CICS environments. Select the job
type “CICS Cluster” if CICS/MRO is to be used with dynamic transaction
routing.
If you mark the selection “None above”, another selection window will appear with additional job types. If you need to use any of these, contact Software AG for advice.
When you have entered the job name and specified the job type, press Enter. The following window will appear, showing the appropriate job name and type:

Note:
The initial parameter values set up for the new job are copied
from those specified in the *DEFAULT entry for the selected job type. If no
default entry exists for the job type, then product default values are
used.
Enter or modify any of the following settings for the job, as required:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| ATM ON/OFF for Job | This parameter is used to determine whether or not the job is to be managed by Adabas Transaction Manager. |
| Coordinator Group Name | Identifies the System Coordinator Group in which the job will execute. |
| System Coordinator Runtime Controls for Daemon Mode | Only required for jobs that run in daemon mode (controlled by the System Coordinator daemon). For information on these parameters, refer to the Adabas System Coordinator documentation. |
Each job or TP system that uses Adabas Transaction Manager must belong to an Adabas System Coordinator group. If you have not yet defined the group in which your job will execute, quit this operation, and use the Adabas System Coordinator Online Services application to define the group. Refer to the Adabas System Coordinator documentation for details.
Once the group has been defined, you can enter its name in the pop-up window pictured above. Alternatively, you can leave the input field blank, in which case you will be presented with a list of the groups that have already been defined; then you can select a group from the list. If only one group has been defined, this group’s name will be provided instead of a list.
If the job has already been defined as running in daemon mode, the System Coordinator Runtime Control parameters will automatically appear in the pop-up window, and the name of the System Coordinator Group will also appear in the upper part of the window.
When you have entered all job parameter settings, press PF5 to save them and return to the list of job parameter sets. The new parameter set will appear in the list. Mark it with an 'm' and press enter. The Modify Job Parameters screen will be displayed, showing the default parameter values:
