Defining jobs using the command line

You can also define jobs using the composer command line of IBM Workload Scheduler.

Dynamic agents

The following example describes an IBM Workload Scheduler job named DYN_JOB_R3_0001 defined in the folder name SAPJOBS, that runs on a dynamic agent workstation named NC112015_1. The IBM Workload Scheduler launches a job in an SAP environment named JOB_APPS_93.

                   name="r3">
  <jsdl:application name="r3" plugin="xajob">
    <jsdlxa:xajob accessMethod="r3batch" target="NW73LIN_r3batch">
            <jsdlxa:taskString>/ -job JOB_APPS_93 -i 14514200 -c c 
                 -flag ENABLE_APPL_RC </jsdlxa:taskString>
        </jsdlxa:xajob>
  </jsdl:application>
</jsdl:jobDefinition>
 RECOVERY STOP

Extended agents

The following example describes an IBM Workload Scheduler job named psjob2 that runs on a PeopleSoft extended agent workstation with unique identifier named XAPS002. IBM Workload Scheduler logs on to UNIX operating system as psjobs and launches a job under PeopleSoft. The PeopleSoft process is named XRFWIN. If recovery is needed, IBM Workload Scheduler runs job recov2 and then continues processing.

  streamlogon psjobs
  scriptname
   -process XRFWIN -type 'SQR Report' -runcontrol 1 -runlocationdescr PSNT
  description "peoplesoft job #2"
  recovery continue after recov2

The arguments of scriptname differ by application. For details, see:
