Line Commands: Active Job Networks

The following line commands are available on the Active Job Networks screen:

The following special PF keys are available on the Active Job Networks screen:

Deactivating Active Job Networks

There are several ways of preventing or interrupting the execution of an active job network. These are described in the following section.

• Deactivation User Rights (Profile Settings)

• Deactivating Active Runs for a Network

• Deactivating all Networks

• Deactivation of planned Networks (Activation Cancelling)

• Stopping a Running Network

Deactivation User Rights (Profile Settings)

Deactivation requires active job deletion user rights and either network master deletion rights or network activation rights. See User Definitions and Profile Settings in the Administration documentation.

Deactivating Active Runs for a Network

If you wish to prevent Entire Operations from submitting active jobs for a network, you can deactivate a network before the first job run is performed.

To deactivate run numbers for active jobs in a selected network

1. On the Active Job Networks screen, type N (Deactivate Network) in the Cmd column next to the selected network, and press ENTER.

   A selection window opens with a list of job run numbers for the selected network together with the activation date:

   12.03.18 **** +-----------------------------------------------+ Owner EXAMPLE | | Selection OR________ | Owner EXAMPLE Network B60-FLOW | ----------------------------- | | Cmd Runs Owner Network | Please mark the run numbers, for which | *--------- *------- | active jobs are to be deactivated. | N P * EXAMPLE B60-FLOW | Then continue with 'Enter'. | _ * EXAMPLE E01-CONT | | _ P * EXAMPLE E60-FLOW | Cmd Run Start Time | _ P * EXAMPLE Z60-FLOW | _ 2715 05.03.18 07:30 | | _ 2716 06.03.18 07:30 | | _ 2717 07.03.18 07:30 | | _ 2718 08.03.18 07:30 | | _ 2719 12.03.18 07:30 | | _ 2720 13.03.18 07:30 planned | | _ 2721 14.03.18 07:30 planned | | | **************************** | | A Active Jobs N Deactivate | | S Act.Jobs Schedule T Accou | | Command => _________________ | | | PF3 End PF7 Up PF8 Down PF9 Deact all | | PF9: Deactivate all visible runs. | +-----------------------------------------------+ Enter-PF1---PF2---PF3---PF4---PF5---PF6---PF7---PF8---PF9---PF10--PF11--PF12--- Help End Up Down ATask All NxtAc Menu

2. In the Cmd column, type any character next to the job run number(s) you want to deactivate, and press ENTER.

   Or:
   Choose PF9 (Deact all) to deactivate all job run numbers listed in the window.

   If the active runs do not fit on one screen, it might be necessary to repeat this function several times.

   Note:
   Be careful with PF9, because no confirmation is requested.

3. Choose PF3 (End) to close the window.

Command Processing

• The message in Progress in the selection window indicates that the command has been accepted.

  The message planned in the selection window indicates that the active job network is not completely activated. No active jobs exist in this state.

• Deactivation is performed by the Entire Operations Monitor in the background. A slight delay can occur during this operation.

  If the Monitor is not active, you can deactivate a job using the Deactivation in Foreground option of Special Functions of the System Services Menu.

Deactivating all Networks

The system administrator can stop the Entire Operations Monitor to halt the execution of all job networks. Jobs currently being executed continue until normal termination, unless they are explicitly cancelled from the operating system.

Deactivation of planned Networks (Activation Cancelling)

If you try to deactivate a planned network activation, you will be prompted for confirmation:

+----------------------------------------------+

!                                              !
!  Please confirm                              !
!  the Deactivation of NET01-517 (4737)        !
!  by entering NET01-517                       !
!          ==> ______________________________  !
!  PF3 End                                     !
+----------------------------------------------+

You must confirm the deactivation by entering the network name here.

Stopping a Running Network

To interrupt a running network, add an input condition, e.g. WAIT-HERE, for the job before which the network is to stop running, and ensure that it will not be set. For more information, see Adding an Active Condition.

To restart the network at the point of interruption, you can manually set the input condition, or remove it from the active job definition (see Displaying and Modifying an Active Job Definition).

Repeating Active Job Networks

Authorized users can repeat single or multiple active job network runs.

Only active jobs which were already executed will be repeated.

Active output conditions of these jobs will be reset prior to repetition.

To repeat or activate an active job network

1. On the Active Job Networks screen, type the line command R next to the network run you want to repeat or manually activate.

   A run number window similar to the example below opens:

   12.03.18 **** +-----------------------------------------------+ Owner EXAMPLE | | Selection OR________ | Owner EXAMPLE Network B60-FLOW | ----------------------------- | | Cmd Runs Owner Network | Please mark the network runs | *--------- *------- | to be repeated | R P * EXAMPLE B60-FLOW | | _ * EXAMPLE E01-CONT | | _ P * EXAMPLE E60-FLOW | Cmd Run Start Time | _ P * EXAMPLE Z60-FLOW | _ 2715 05.03.18 13:14 | | _ 2716 06.03.18 13:14 | | _ 2717 07.03.18 13:14 | | _ 2718 08.03.18 13:14 | | _ 2719 12.03.18 13:14 | | | | | | | **************************** | | A Active Jobs N Deactivate | | S Act.Jobs Schedule T Accou | | Command => _________________ | | | PF3 End PF7 Up PF8 Down | | | +-----------------------------------------------+ Enter-PF1---PF2---PF3---PF4---PF5---PF6---PF7---PF8---PF9---PF10--PF11--PF12--- Help End Up Down ATask All NxtSt Menu

2. Select one or more network runs to be repeated with any character, and press ENTER.

   For each run to be repeated, a confirmation window similar to the example below opens:

   +--------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | Owner EXAMPLE Network B60-FLOW Run 2138 | | | | Adapt job time frames for the repetition ==> N (Y/N) | | | | PF3 End | +--------------------------------------------------------------+

3. Adapt job time frames for the repetition. If Y (yes) is entered here, the active job's time frames will be adapted as follows:

   Formula	Example
   time delay = current time - old earliest start	13:00 - 9:00 = 4 hours
   new earliest start = current time	13:00
   new latest start = old latest start + time delay	17:00 + 4 hours = 21:00
   new deadline = old deadline + time delay	18:00 + 4 hours = 22:00
