   General Information Parameters: Matching a Job with a Mission

   The top section of the Mission List screen contains the General Information parameters. These parameters provide general information about the mission as well as information that matches a job with a mission.

   In this example, the JOB field indicates that the mission must be invoked by JOB M18GO. Control-M/Analyzer performs the following steps to match JOB M18GO with this mission:

   1. JOB M18GO contains a step which invokes Control-M/Analyzer. When it is executed, the MISSION parameter in the JCL EXEC statement instructs Control-M/Analyzer to look for the ADMIN mission.
   2. Control-M/Analyzer looks in its Active Balancing file for the ADMIN mission. Putting a mission in the Active Balancing file is described in Active Balancing Environment.
   3. Control-M/Analyzer determines, from this mission definition, that it must execute rule BALINV.

   Basic Scheduling Parameters

   The middle section of the screen contains the Basic Scheduling parameters for the mission. The Control-M/Analyzer scheduling capabilities are extensive. As shown in the example definition, this mission is scheduled for weekdays 1 through 5, and all months. For more information on Basic Scheduling parameters, see the discussion of mission definition parameters in the Control-M/Analyzer User Guide.

   Runtime Scheduling Parameters

   Following the Basic Scheduling information, there are two lines containing Runtime Scheduling parameters. In this mission, you see that condition CTB-ADMIN-DATA-OK must exist at runtime, when this mission is invoked, to execute the rule.

   SET VARS: Presetting a Control-M/Analyzer Variable

   The last line, SET VARS, presets a Control-M/Analyzer variable to a value before executing the rule. The mission does not set any variable values.
