Sure, let's delve deeper into the workflow of Control-M when scheduling a backend
job:
- Job Definition: Define the job in Control-M. This includes specifying the job
name, the job type, and the necessary parameters. Jobs that work together or have
related job processing definitions can be grouped into folders that enable you to
manage your collection of jobs.
- Scheduling: In Control-M, you can schedule the job to run at specific times or in
response to specific events. You can also set up cyclic jobs that run at regular
intervals. Jobs need to run at specific times, or in a specific sequence.
- Ordering: Jobs can be ordered manually or from another job using the ctmorder
utility. This utility is described in the Control-M Utility Guide. For example, you
can use an On-Do action to order a job that runs a ctmorder command, in that
command we can calculate the next day date using Control-M variables.
- Monitoring: Once the job is running, you can monitor its progress in Control-M.
If the job fails, Control-M can alert you and provide information to help you
troubleshoot the issue.
- On-Do Actions: Control-M allows you to define actions that should be taken when
certain conditions are met. For example, you might want to order another job to run
if a job fails. A solution to this is to use On-Do action to order a job that runs
a ctmorder command, in that command we can calculate the next day date using
Control-M variables.
Remember, these are general steps and the exact process will depend on your
specific environment and needs.
