Rerun a Failed Batch Job

You can restart a failed batch procedure step under the Test Facility by entering the load module name of the failed procedure step. TIRIOVF contains the import view that is passed on the previous transfer from another step or from itself. Restore files that are controlled by external action blocks.

Use the following procedure to rerun a failed batch job from the beginning while in the Test Facility:

1. Back out the changes to the DB2 tables and to any files controlled by external action blocks.
2. Run the CLEARIOV CLIST to reset the TIRIOVF file. Attempting to execute without clearing the TIRIOVF results in a fatal error because the Batch Manager expects to restart a different step. Execute the CLIST by entering TSO CLEARIOV on the TSO COMMAND line when the Specify Test Execution Environment Panel is displayed.
3. Enter the load module name of the first procedure step again.
