An Overview of Job Management Manager › Features and Uses › Jobs

Jobs

• You can create jobs that consist of a single system-level command or a command file containing many commands.
• Your repetitive jobs run automatically, based on scheduled intervals and other criteria you specify. For example, you can specify mail notification for completed jobs, or what to do if a system failure occurs.
• You can modify selected job criteria without having to resubmit a job. The manager maintains your job criteria in its job database, separate from job actions.
• You can modify job characteristics for a single run or for all future runs.
• You can specify commands to run before or after a job (prefunctions and postfunctions).
