UNIX Jobs

UNIX jobs let you run workload on UNIX computers. The job can run a script or execute a command.

Note: To run these jobs, your system requires CA WA Agent for UNIX or Linux.

When you define a UNIX job, you can specify settings including the following:

Positional Parameters

Defines variables to pass to a program at the time the program is invoked.

Environment Variables

Specifies variables that define the local environment where the job runs.

User-defined Exit Codes

Defines exit codes to indicate job success and job failure. By default, an exit code of 0 (zero) indicates job success and any other code indicates job failure.

Process Priority

Specifies the order in which processes are scheduled on the processor.

Shell

Specifies the shell the script runs in.
