ALTER EXECUTOR Command
executor-name-2
is the name of an executor whose attributes you want executor executor-name-1 to
match.
attribute
is one of these executor attributes (see Section 7, Attributes):
CL[ASS] BBC{( AALVS1( class-name,( class-name [ , class-name
]…),*) )
CP[U] cpu-number
attribute, when specified with LIKE, overrides executor-name-2 attributes of
the same type.
Considerations
•
The ALTER EXECUTOR command is available to NetBatch supervisors only.
•
The CLASS executor attribute lets you assign up to eight existing classes to an
executor. (An existing class is one added to the scheduler by the ADD CLASS
command.) You also can use the attribute to dissociate classes from an executor.
°
To assign a class to an executor, specify the name of the class and the names
of the executor’s pre-existing classes. If you specify only the name of the new
class, the ALTER EXECUTOR command dissociates all other classes from the
executor.
°
To dissociate a class from an executor, specify the names of the classes that
are to remain assigned to the executor.
•
The order in which you assign classes to an executor determines the order in
which the scheduler scans the classes for jobs. For example, assigning classes B
and A to an executor (in that order) makes the scheduler scan class B before it
scans class A. Jobs in class B therefore run before jobs in class A.
•
You can specify only one CPU per executor.
•
When you alter an executor’s CPU attribute, the change takes effect immediately
unless the executor is in use by a job. In this case, the change does not take effect
until the job finishes.
•
You can omit the object keyword EXECUTOR from the ALTER EXECUTOR
command only when EXECUTOR is the current assumed object. For more
information, see ASSUME EXECUTOR Command on page 6-71.
