Activating and Deactivating Quiesced Quantitative Resources

When a job is ordered by Control-M, the job ordering process checks for any quantitative resources that have been deactivated or are to be deactivated at a later time. If the job requires such a quantitative resource, and if the time that the job is expected to complete is later than the time at which the quantitative resource is deactivated, then the quantitative resource is not assigned to the job, and the job will not run.

The QUIESQRES command enables users to activate and deactivate quantitative resources, and to display the status of those resources.

To display or change the status of a specific resource, enter the following command:

where

• resource-name is the quantitative resource
• DISPLAY displays the activation status of the quantitative resource
• NOW immediately deactivates the quantitative resource
• OFF immediately reactivates the quantitative resource
• hhmm deactivates the quantitative resource at the specified time

The current status of all quiesced quantitative resources can be displayed by using an asterisk (*) as the value of the resource-name variable, as shown in the following example:

All quiesced quantitative resources can be immediately reactivated by using an asterisk (*) as the value of the resource-name variable, as shown in the following example:

F CONTROLM,QUIESQRES=*,OFF

You can use an asterisk as the value of the resource-name variable only with the DISPLAY and OFF subparameters.
