Functions
When you submit a job with EVERY attribute, the job automatically adopts the attribute
IFFAILS OFF. The job is not rescheduled if it abends during execution. To have the job
be rescheduled if it abends, specify the attribute IFFAILS ON before submission.
A job with the EVERY attribute might accumulate a job backlog while suspended.
When you activate the job, it runs repeatedly until the backlog is cleared. For
information on preventing the backlog from running, see F10–Activate on page 6-167.
Calendar
Use the Calendar field to set the CALENDAR job attribute. The attribute specifies the
name of the file containing scheduling information for the job. To set the attribute, enter
the Guardian name of the disk file containing the calendar information. The file must be
created by the BATCHCAL program (file code 848).
When you submit a job with the CALENDAR attribute, the job adopts automatically the
attribute IFFAILS OFF. This prevents the job from being rescheduled if it abends during
execution. To reschedule the job in these circumstances, specify the attribute
IFFAILS ON when you submit it.
A job with the CALENDAR attribute does not accumulate a job backlog while
suspended. When you activate the job, it runs only when the attribute condition is next
satisfied.
