Distribution Time
Setup Date and Time
The calendar provided for setting up send date and time is initially set to current date and time, which means that the distribution, or the job, will start immediately.
By default, the current date and time are provided.
Selecting the date dropdown opens a calendar, where you can choose another day in the current month or move to another month.
The time is changed by clicking on the hour, minute or second values and increasing the value by using the upward-pointing little arrow at the right-hand side of this field.
The downward-pointing little arrow decreases the selected value.
The calendar provided for setting up halt date and time initially is set to current date and time, increased by Max_Dist_Time (maximum time, in minutes, for one complete container distribution), the configuration parameter that determines the amount of time after which the whole container will be set into error state.
If you set the halt time equal to the start time of the distribution, the distribution will halt immediately.
It is not accepted to set the halt date and time before current date and time. Nor can the date and time to halt a distribution precede the send time. In such cases, an error message will be shown.
If the container is halted before the distribution has ended, you can resume it.
The Distribution can only be resumed when Distribution status is "Halted" or "Error" and you are using DTS (Data Transport Services).
The difference between Resume and Renew is that when you use Renew, the distribution starts all over again for areas, where status is not "OK".
With Resume, the distribution will either continue with the first parcel transfer that did not yet succeed or (in case 100% has been sent) continue waiting for outstanding acknowledgements. The successful parcel transfers so far made in the distribution will not be repeated.
The Distribution can only be renewed when Distribution status is "Halted" or "Error". You can set a new date and time for the Distribution to be renewed. If, at renewal time, there are areas to which 100% has been transferred, container processing at those areas might be repeated.
