ctmdefsubfolder

The ctmdefsubfolder utility creates a definition for a new Sub Folder. Sub Folders are used for jobs whose processing can be treated as a single unit. A Sub Folder can only be defined within a SMART folder, see ctmdeffolder. A Sub Folder can be empty, or it can contain jobs and also other Sub Folders. To run the ctmdefsubfolder utility, see Running the ctmdefsubfolder utility.

For more information about parameters of Sub Folders, see Sub Folder parameters.

When using variables in ctmdefsubfolder parameters, a variable that does not contain a $ sign can be enclosed in single (‘ ’) or double (" ") quotation marks. A variable that does contain a $ sign must be enclosed in single quotation marks. A variable containing a $ sign cannot be resolved if it is enclosed in double quotation marks.

The RBC option associates Rule-Based Calendars to be used by the Sub Folder and it may appear more than once. Specified Rule-Based Calendars must be defined by the direct parent folder. The '*' means that the Sub Folder inherits all the Rule-Based Calendars from the direct parent folder. When a Sub Folder is defined without a Rule-based calendar, the Sub Folder inherits the Rule-based calendars of the direct parent. To define a Sub Folder without any Rule-based calendar associations, use the NONE option. If a Rule-based calendar is defined with the ! character at the beginning of the Rule-based calendar name, the Rule-based calendar is excluded. If this feature is disabled, an error message is displayed that you cannot define a Rule-based calendar with the ! character. For more information, see DefaultCTMExcludeRBC in General parameters.

The Created by field will be set automatically with the default logged in account name if it's not specified.
