Advanced Scheduling Techniques › Changing Your Storage Size (STORAGE) › Example

Example

In this example, the logon storage size of your user ID is 3M. You have a maximum storage of 8M, and you want to process a large document, which requires 5M of storage. To schedule the work as request PAPERS, and request 5M of space to run it in for 7:00 tonight, enter the following command:

vmsched schedule papers (at 19:00:00 storage 5m

Because you did not enter a command name, the server responds with the following prompt:

ENTER COMMAND PARAMETERS:

Now, enter the command line:

reformat survey script c (continue page (from 26 to 318)

The server prompts you for the command-line parameters because it contains parentheses. CA VM:Schedule cannot distinguish between your parentheses and its own. If your command contains a parenthesis, you must either leave it out and let the server prompt you for it, or put it in an EXEC and then schedule that EXEC instead.
