The CTMBTBL utility automatically converts tables to SMART Tables.
During conversion to a SMART table, the following actions are automatically performed by the utility:
A SMART Table Entity is created for the table.
A table name is defined and added (in protected mode) to the TABLE field in each job scheduling definition.
The format of the regular job scheduling definitions is modified to match the format of job scheduling definitions in SMART Tables (meaning, the SCHEDULE RBC field is added to, and supported in, the job scheduling definitions).
By default, the value of parameter MAXWAIT is obtained from the SMART Table definition. However, if parameter RBCMAXWT in member CTMPARM of the IOA PARM library is set to N (No), the value of this parameter is obtained from the job definition.
Basic scheduling criteria specified in a job definition are converted to a TBL Level RBC in the SMART table.
If a job in a regular table is using a CTM Level RBC, the regular table is not converted to a SMART table and an appropriate message is issued.
Note: Compress jobs within a table (meaning, job scheduling definitions with the MINIMUM and PDS fields defined) are converted, but these jobs are not assigned SCHEDULE RBC fields. Instead, their only scheduling criteria after the conversion are the MINIMUM and PDS criteria. However, a SCHEDULE RBC field can be manually added following conversion.
