The SBMSCHJOB command allows you to schedule batch jobs for execution in
the future. Only the ETU power commands can be scheduled using this
command (PCFROMPC, PCTOPC, PWRFROM3XB, and PWRTO3XB). In addition to the
power commands, you can also schedule any non-ETU commands that can be
submitted to batch.
Before You Begin
Before you can schedule a job, you must first start the job called
JOBSCHED, which controls the job scheduling. This job is part of a
procedure that submits a program called SCHPGM to the QINTER subsystem.
Every time QINTER is shut down, the JOBSCHED job must be restarted or the
job scheduling program will not work.
To restart JOBSCHED, enter the following command string on the AS/400
command line:
sbmjob job(jobsched) jobd(xxxx) rqsdta('call schpgmc')
jobq(qinter) inqmsgrpy(*sysrpyl)
where xxxx is the job description that a job submitted to batch with the
SBMSCHJOB command will use for its operating parameters. These operating
parameters include the library list and output queue to be used.
The time you specify for the SBMSCHJOB command is the time the job will
be released; not necessarily the time the job will be processed. The time
at which the job is processed depends on the number of jobs ahead of it
in the job queue.
