A prerequisite condition is a user-defined descriptive name given to a certain situation or condition. Prerequisite conditions can be specified in a Control-M/Tape rule definition using a DO CONDITION statement.
Prerequisite conditions can serve as a method of communication between Control-M/Tape and the other INCONTROL products at your site.
Control-M/Tape uses prerequisite conditions to track the status of various aspects of the environment. When the status of a specific aspect of the environment changes, a Control-M/Tape rule can set or delete a condition to indicate this, and then subsequently trigger jobs, rules, or missions in other INCONTROL products whose execution is dependent on the status of this condition.
