4.3.3 Operational Processes, Jobs, and Steps

An operational process is a series of batch jobs that make up
a logical unit of work.  Operational processes update and
maintain the CA MICS Database.

Operational jobs are the smallest executable unit of work in
CA MICS.  An operational job updates the CA MICS Database,
generates reports, or performs a restart/recovery operation.

Job steps are a specific item of work within an operational
job.  A job step updates the CA MICS Database for a single
product, generates reports, or performs a control function.
