Using Runtime Scheduling Parameters to Determine When to Execute the Mission

The fourth set of parameters you fill in are the Runtime Scheduling parameters. With these parameters, you define when (and under what conditions) the mission should execute after it has been placed in the Active Missions file.

Report Decollating Mission Runtime Scheduling Parameters

  IN                                                                          

  WHEN IN QUEUE         TIME FROM      UNTIL       INTERVAL     PRIORITY      

  DSN                                                                        

Once all runtime criteria are fulfilled concurrently, the report decollating mission starts executing. The Control-D monitor checks the Active Missions file at specified intervals (defined in member CTDPARM) to see if the specified criteria have been met.

There are two environments from which decollating may proceed – from jobs that have output written directly to CDAM datasets, and from jobs that have output written to spool. We will summarize both methods.
