Most Control-M/Restart functions for a job are defined using parameters in the job scheduling definition. These parameters can be defined so that Control-M/Restart processing is completely automatic, requiring no manual intervention.
However, if manual intervention is needed, for example, a manual confirmation before a restart under Control-M/Restart, these parameters can be defined accordingly.
Table 1 lists Control-M/Restart functions, and the parameters in the Control-M job scheduling definition that are used to define them.
