---------------------------- ARF CONDITION EDIT ---------------------------- FUNCTION: (ADD,DELETE,EXIT,FORMAT,LIST,REPL,SAVE,SR,SS) DEFCT: 00 TYPE: SYS EQ * SID EQ 0 RSTC GE 0 EM EQ * DEFID: FROM: 01011975 0001 TO: 12312074 2359

SYS

The following two input fields specify a test to be made on the system name associated with the job when the job enters the request queue to determine whether the job is to be monitored by ARF. Following the literal 'SYS' is a relational operator input field that is set by default to 'EQ' indicating that the system name of the job must be equal to the value in the following input field. This can be overtyped with an 'NE' to indicate that the system name must not be equal to the value in the following input field.

Default: EQ

Batch keyword: SYSRO

The input field immediately following the relational operator is set by default to '*'. The default values for SYS, 'EQ *' indicate that all system names are valid. The '*' can be changed to provide a fully or partially qualified system name to be compared against the system name of the job entering the request queue. The value can incorporate '+' to indicate a wildcard. An '*' terminating the string indicates a generic. Thus for example, if the values for SYS are 'EQ PAY+23*', then any system name beginning with 'PAY' and having '23' in the fifth and sixth positions will pass this test.

Default: *

Limits: 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters
+ indicates a wildcard
* indicates a generic

Batch keyword: SYS

SID

The following two input fields specify a test to be made on the SCHID associated with the job when the job enters the request queue to determine whether the job is to be monitored by ARF. Following the literal 'SID' is a relational operator input field that is set by default to 'EQ' indicating that the SCHID of the job must be equal to the value in the following input field. This can be overtyped with one of the following values:

EQ

Equal

NE

Not equal

GE

Greater than or equal to

GT

Greater than

LE

Less than or equal to

LT

Less than

The SCHID of the job entering the request queue will be compared to the value in the input field following the relational operator. If the resulting statement is true then the test is passed.

Default: EQ

Batch keyword: SIDRO

The input field immediately following the relational operator is set by default to '0'. The default values for SID, 'EQ 0' indicate that all SCHIDs are valid. The '0' can be changed to provide a fully qualified SCHID value from 001-999 to be compared against the SCHID of the job entering the request queue.

Default: 0 (a value of 0 refers to ALL SCHIDs)

Limits: 1 to 3 numeric characters from 0 through 999

Batch keyword: SID

RSTC

The following two input fields specify a test to be made on the restart count of the job to determine whether the job is to be monitored by ARF. Following the literal 'RSTC' is a relational operator input field that is set by default to 'GE' indicating that the restart count of the job must be greater than or equal to the value in the following input field. This can be overtyped with one of the following values:

NE

Not equal

GE

Greater than or equal to

EQ

Equal

GT

Greater than

LE

Less than or equal to

LT

Less than

The restart count of the job is compared to the value in the input field following the relational operator. If the resulting statement is true then the test is passed.

Default: GE

Batch keyword: RSTRO

The input field immediately following the relational operator is set by default to '0'. The default values for RSTC, 'GE 0' indicate that any restart count is valid. The '0' can be changed to provide a fully qualified decimal value from 0 through 999 to be compared against the restart count of the job to be considered for ARF monitoring.

Default: 0

Limits: 1 to 3 numeric characters from 0 through 999

Batch keyword: RST

EM

The following two input fields specify a test to be made on the entry mode of the job when the job enters the request queue to determine whether the job is to be monitored by ARF. Following the literal 'EM' is a relational operator input field that is set by default to 'EQ' indicating that the entry mode of the job must be equal to the value in the following input field. This can be overtyped with an 'NE' to indicate that the entry mode must not be equal to the value in the following input field.

Default: EQ

Batch keyword: EMRO

The input field immediately following the relational operator is set by default to '*'. The default values for EM, 'EQ *' indicate that all entry modes are valid. The '*' can be changed to provide a fully qualified entry mode designation to be compared against the entry mode of the job entering the request queue. Entry mode designations valid in this field are the following:

DEMD

Job entered through a DEMAND command

DTRG

Job entered through a DSN trigger

JTRG

Job entered through a job trigger

NTRG

Job entered through a network trigger

PSCH

Job entered through personal scheduling

RPET

Job entered because it was repeated

RUN

Job entered through a RUN command

SSCN

Job entered through a schedule scan

Default: * (all entry modes)

Batch keyword: EM

FROM

Two input fields used to specify a date and time that is compared against the date and time when the job enters the request queue. To pass the test, the queue entry date and time must be greater than the date and time specified here.

FROM Date

Default: 01011975

Limits: 8 numeric character positions in MMDDYYYY format. Valid range from 01011975 to 12312074. You can also use one of the reserved words.

Batch keyword: FROMD

FROM Time

Default: 0001 (1 minute past midnight)

Limits: 4 character positions in hhmm format. Valid range from 0000 to 2359.

Batch keyword: FROMT

TO

Two input fields used to specify a date and time that is compared against the date and time when the job enters the request queue. To pass the test, the queue entry date and time must be less than the date and time specified here.

TO Date

Default: 12312074

Limits: 8 character positions in MMDDYYYY format. Valid range from 01011975 to 12312074. You can also use one of the reserved words.

Batch keyword: TOD

TO Time

Default: 2359 (11:59 PM)

Limits: 4 character positions in hhmm format. Valid range from 0000 to 2359.

Batch keyword: TOT
