Interacting with the administrative task scheduler

At each point in time when the administrative task scheduler detects that a task should be executed, it drives the task execution according to the work described in the task definition. There is no user interaction. The administrative task scheduler delegates the execution of the task to one of its execution threads, which executes the stored procedure or the JCL job described in the work definition of the task. The execution thread waits for the end of the execution and notifies the administrative task scheduler. The administrative task scheduler stores the execution status of the task in its redundant task lists, in relation with the task itself.
