/RESTART (D) /NORESTART

Instructs the manager to restart the job if it is marked in the database as running, but is not really running. This can happen if the job was interrupted by a system failure. If you specify /NORESTART, the job is put on hold after a system failure.

If the interrupted job has no node restriction, then it restarts on the new default node; otherwise, the job must wait until its node is available.

Note: The manager restarts the job from the beginning, unless the job has a restart test value. You use the SCHEDULE SET RESTART_VALUE command to assign a test-value symbol to restarted jobs. You can also use the command SCHEDULE SET JOB /RESTART_VALUE to set the restart value when the job is not running.
