It may be necessary to restart a job several times before successful completion of the job. In this case, note the following:
Once restart of an original job run has been initiated from the Control-M/Restart Standalone panel, do not exit the panel until restart has successfully been completed, even if multiple restarts are required for successful job completion. If you exit the panel before successful completion of the restart, the restart history is lost and successful restart cannot later be performed.
In the JOBID field, only the most current (latest) job id is specified. When first requesting restart of the original job, use the job id of the original run. If the first restart fails and a second restart is being requested, use the job id of the failed (first) restart; for a third restart, use the job id of the second (failed) restart; and so on.
In field FIRST RESTART, a value of Y (Yes) is specified only for the first restart attempt following the original run. When subsequent restarts are required, a value of N (No) is specified for all subsequent restart attempts (despite the fact that a different jobid is used for each restart attempt).
