About Process Manager Calendars
Process Manager uses calendars to define the dates in a time event, which can be used to automatically run jobs or flows. Calendars are defined independently of jobs and flows so that they can be associated with multiple events.
You create Process Manager calendars using the Calendar Editor. The Calendar Editor is a Java Client that you install on your desktop separately. Refer to the installation guide Installing IBM Spectrum LSF Process Manager on UNIX/Linux or Installing IBM Spectrum LSF Process Manager on Windows for installation instructions.
About system calendars
System calendars are calendars that are predefined or created by the Process Manager administrator. These calendars are owned by the virtual user “Sys” and can be referenced by any user. Only the Process Manager administrator can create or delete system calendars.
Process Manager includes a number of predefined system calendars that you can use without having to define them. In addition to the following list, your Process Manager administrator may define other system calendars for your use. The following is a list of the system calendars that are ready for your use:
