UNIX/Linux Configuration Environment Variables

The environment variables in the following list are referenced in other sections of this chapter. For a summary of all UNIX/Linux CA NSM JM Option environment variables, see the online CA Reference.

CAISCHD0009

Specifies the name of the default CA NSM JM Option calendar. The default name is base. Set this variable in the file $CAIGLBL0000/sche/scripts/envset file. For C shell users, set in the $CAIGLBL0000/sche/scripts/envusrcsh file.

CAISCHD0011 and CAISCHD0012

Sets the time of day for the new‑day autoscan and the interval between autoscans for the current workday. You can set these environment variables to different values if you want to change the default time of the new-day autoscan (default is 1 for 01:00 or the default autoscan interval (default is every 3 hours). Valid values for CAISCHD0012 are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12.

CAISCHD0014

Controls the effect of the cancel command on successor jobs. The default setting is Y. When set to Y (yes), the CA NSM JM Option posts on cancel, which allows successor jobs to run because the predecessor requirement is satisfied by the predecessor having been removed (by the cancel command) from the current day’s workload.

If the variable is set to N (no), successor jobs dependent on the prior completion of a canceled job are not posted. Because the predecessor requirement is not satisfied, successor jobs remain in a WPRED (waiting for predecessors) status.

Set this variable in the $CAIGLBL0000/sche/scripts/envset file by adding the following statements to $CAIGLBL0000/sche/scripts/envset:

CAISCHD0014=No
export CAISCHD0014

Then shut down and restart the CA NSM JM Option using these commands:

unishutdown sche
unistart sche

Note: Running the unicntrl stop sche or unishutdown sche command stops job submission and disables display of the status tracking information for jobsets and jobs. These processes resume when you run the unicntrl start sche or unistart sche command. There is no loss of tracking data for jobs that complete or abnormally terminate while the CA NSM JM Option is stopped. The Job Event Logger continues to run and track completion of scheduled processes, even while the CA NSM JM Option is stopped.

CAISCHD0530

Specifies a comma-delimited list of authorized remote manager nodes allowed to submit jobs. The default (blank) is to allow all job managers to submit jobs to the job agent.

CAISCHD0540

Controls how the number of cyclic job iterations are calculated when cyclic jobs are demanded after their early start time.
