Control-M monitor

The Control-M monitor handles and controls job processing as follows:

• Checks the runtime requirements specified in each job scheduling definition in the Active Jobs File, monitors available resources and conditions in the environment, and when it determines that the conditions and resources required by a job are available, it allocates the resources and submits the job.

  In the Control-M/Assist environment jobs are submitted externally to Control-M.

• Monitors the execution of the job.
• Implements post-processing decisions based on instructions in the job scheduling definition and the results of the job execution. This phase enables CTM/Assist users to trigger activities in Control-M/DS.

The Control-M monitor operates continuously. It evaluates the production environment and implements decisions.
