Parameters

T=type
Specifies the deadline type (1-character identifier) to be modified. The type is defined during JES3 initialization.
ALL
Specifies that changes made by the operator to the designated deadline type are to be applied to all jobs of this type, including those jobs already in the JES3 job queue. (If this parameter is omitted, changes made affect only those jobs of this type not yet in the system.)
INT =nnH or nnnnM or hhmm
Specifies the interval at which the priority is to change after the initial lead time elapses. The time can be specified in hours (nnH), in minutes (nnnnM), or in hours and minutes (hhmm); the maximum values are 24H for nnH, 1440M for nnnnM, and 2400 for hhmm.
LEAD =nnH or nnnnM or hhmm
Specifies the amount of lead time before the deadline time and date that the PRTY value is invoked. The time can be specified in hours (nnH), in minutes (nnnnM), or in hours and minutes (hhmm); the maximum values are 24H for nnH, 1440M for nnnnM, and 2400 for hhmm.
PINC =+nn or nn
Specifies additional changes in priority after the initial lead time elapses. The priority can be increased by a specified value (+nn) or be changed to a specified value (nn). The additional increases in job priority take place at intervals specified by the INT parameter.
PRTY =+nn or nn
Specifies that the priority of the deadline type is increased by a specified value (+nn) when the lead time elapses, or that the priority is changed to a specified value (nn) when the lead time elapses.

Example

For deadline type A, change the priority to 12 when the lead time of 4 hours has elapsed and increase the priority by 2 every 30 minutes:
*F,L,T=A,PRTY=12,LEAD=4H,PINC=+2,INT=30M
