FJOB Command

The FJOB command provides forecasting for jobs. The command includes an option to include output workstation networks in the forecast. Only the database is used for this forecast.

This command has the following format:

FJOB,FROM=(mmddyy,hhmm),{TO=(mmddyy,hhmm)|SPAN=hhhh}
     [,DRMODE={YES|NO}]
     [,DRCLASS=(class1,...,class8)]
     [,{JOB={*|jobname|(jobname1,...jobname10)|mask}|JOBL={*|longjobname|mask}}]
     [,JOBNET={*|name|mask}]
     [,LIST={ALL|#JOB|CPU|GRPH|JOB|TAPE|W|WP|WPS|WS}]
     [,LVL={100|nnn}]
     [,MAINID=SYn]
     [,NWOPT={N|S}]
     [,RINT=hhmm]
     [,SCHID={0|nnn}]
     [,SEG=(segment,subsegment)]
     [,SEQ={DLDT|DODT|JOB}]
     [,SYS={*|system|mask}]
     [,TRIG={J|D|{JD|DJ}|N}]
     [,TYPE={ACTUAL|ALL}]

FROM

Defines the beginning date and time for the time interval to be forecast. FROM is required.

TO

Defines the ending date and time for the time interval to be forecast. Either TO or SPAN is required. If TO is specified, SPAN must be omitted.

SPAN

Defines the length of the time interval to be forecast. This value is added to the FROM date and time-of-day to determine the ending date and time of the forecast time interval.

Limits: 1 to 4 numeric characters that are specified as hhhh where the minimum value is 1 hour and maximum value is 8784 hours.

Required: Yes, unless TO is used.

LIST

(Optional) Specifies the options for either resource forecasting or the worksheet. If you code LIST for resource forecasting, also specify the RINT option.

ALL

Produces all of the following choices. With this option, TAPE1 displays separately from TAPE2. ALL is the default.

#JOB

Graphically displays the number of jobs running during each time interval specified.

CPU

Graphically displays the percent of CPU usage during each time interval specified.

GRPH

Graphically displays the number of jobs running, percent of CPU used and tape usage during each time interval specified.

JOB

Produces a resource forecast report for the CPU workload.

TAPE

Graphically displays the number of tapes (both TAPE1 and TAPE2) forecasted for each time interval specified.

For worksheet requests, RINT and NWOPT must be omitted and LIST can have one of the following values:

W: Produces a schedule worksheet, without prose from the forecast report.
WP: Produces prose information with the specified forecast worksheet.
WPS: Produces the same information as WP except skips to the top of the page for each job.
WS: Produces the same information as W except skips to the top of the page for each job.
