Month/Day based triggering using CA7

GiridharanN · Posted: Wed Jan 02, 2008 6:44 pm

I have 2 jobs say JOBA and JOBB.

JOBA is daily and JOBB is monthly.

JOBA should trigger JOBB on its last run in a month.

Schedule ID of JOBA in CA7 canot be disturbed as we have several other dependencies based on SCHD ID of JOBA.

Is there any other way through which this JOBA - JOBB triggering can happen?

Just some thoughts:
Setup a calendar specifying the last day of each month.
Schedule JOBB on that calendar with a condition that JOBA must complete before JOBB starts.

I am sorry. There is a little miscommunication in the problem that I have posted.

Actually JOBA should be triggered by the monthly job JOBB when it runs and not as specified in my first post.

Is there a way in which this can be done without using a separate schedule ID. I mean using 2 different calendars as you had suggested but under the same schedule ID or any other way.

I don't know enough about CA7, just bits and pieces. Have you perused the CA-7 manuals or contacted CA for support?

Schedule JOBA daily except for last day of the month, and as JOBB is scheduled only on the last day of the month it can trigger JOBA.
