Automated Recovery Facility › ARFSET Structure › Filter Criteria

Filter Criteria

The filter criteria determine whether the tests for a particular type of exception are applicable for this run of the job. If a job enters the request queue with an ARFSET reference, then the job is considered a candidate for ARF monitoring. The filter criteria are then used to determine whether the job is to be monitored by ARF.

The ARF definition contains criteria for tests of the system name, SCHID, restart count, entry mode, and queue entry date and time. The job entering the request queue must pass ALL of the tests implied by the filter criteria to be monitored by ARF.
