4.3.3.2 Operational Jobs
CA MICS provides standard operational jobs for updating,
reporting, maintaining, and recovering its Database:
o DAILY - run each day to update the DETAIL and DAYS
timespan files plus week-to-date and month-
to-date files in the WEEKS and MONTHS timespans
(may be supplemented by one or more INCRccc job
executions)
o WEEKLY - run once each week after the DAILY job for
WEEKS timespan cycle close-out, weekly archive
audit, and weekly archive history processing
o MONTHLY - run once each month after the DAILY job for
MONTHS timespan cycle close-out and monthly
archive history processing and for updating
year-to-date files
o YEARLY - run once each year after the MONTHLY job for
YEARS timespan cycle close-out
o BACKUP - run daily, bi-daily, or weekly (per user-
specified backup frequency) to generate a tape
backup of the entire Database
o SCHEDULE - run each day to submit scheduled processing
o RESTORE - run whenever the database is damaged or must be
recovered
o DAILYRPT - run after DAILY to produce daily production
reports
o WEEKRPT - run after WEEKLY to produce weekly production
reports
o MONTHRPT - run after MONTHLY to produce monthly production
reports
o RSTRTBLS - run to restore the TABLES and SCREENS data sets
o RSTRTLIB - run to restore ISPF-based information
o DAYSMFR - run as necessary to recreate DAILY job work
files
o ACTDAY1R - run as necessary to restore the CA MICS
Accounting and Chargeback DAY1 audit file
o RSTATUS - run as necessary to update Operational Status
and Tracking control tables or to replace a
lost Run Status Report
o INCRccc - optionally run one or more times per day to
process a portion of the daily input data for
the ccc data integration product to update the
product's incremental update ("today to-date")
DETAIL and DAYS timespan files
o SPLITSMF - (optional) run one or more times a day to split
the SMF input data into multiple files for
processing in the INCRccc jobs. SPLITSMF is a
stand-alone version of the DAILY job's DAYSMF
step and applies only to those products which
take their input from the SMF files, and which
are marked as INCRUPDATE YES and INCRSPLIT USE
in prefix.MICS.PARMS(cccOPS).
o IUDBINIT - optionally run to re-initialize in-progress
incremental update processing after restoring
the unit database files (i.e., after running
the RESTORE job). Messages in the RESTORE job
MICSLOG will prompt you to execute IUDBINIT
when needed.
o AUDIT - (optional) run after WEEKLY to perform optional
Archive Audit processing. The AUDIT job is
used when you specify
ARCHIVE AUDIT YES JOB
in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF).
NOTE: You can execute AUDIT more frequently
(e.g., twice a week or daily) if DASD
space is inadequate for retaining
sufficient DETAIL/DAYS cycles for weekly
audit tape creation.
In this case, it is necessary to add the
following to prefix.MICS.PARMS(EXECDEF)
USERDEF AUDITCWK YES
This parameter overrides the default
audit archive processing. Data for the
current week is retained and copied to
the new audit archive tape cycle.
o HISTW - (optional) run after WEEKLY to perform optional
Archive Weekly History processing. The HISTW
job is used when you specify
ARCHIVE HISTW YES JOB
in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF).
o HISTM - (optional) run after MONTHLY to perform
optional Archive Monthly History processing.
The HISTM job is used when you specify
ARCHIVE HISTM YES JOB
in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF).
The operational jobs are documented in the sections that
follow.
