Status of Application in OPC

Hi,

In the OPC Scheduler, when browsing a particular application (by giving the application id in Browse Applications option), the status of th application is mentioned as 'Pending'. Could anyone please let me know on what all scenarios, a application would have set as 'pending'.

Exactly the same reasons that you would find by reading the manual.
Oh, you have done that already - haven't you ???

Hi,

I read the manual of "IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS
Best Practices". It has the description of the Status field. But i couldn't find the reason for Pending status.

Usually, well for me anyway, it is because the application or job is waiting for a special resource to become available.

pending occurrence. The dummy occurrence created by the daily planning process to honor a dependency that has been resolved in the long-term plan but cannot be resolved in the current plan because the predecessor’s input arrival time is not within the current plan end time.

pending predecessor. A predecessor dependency to an occurrence which is defined in the long-term plan but not yet included in the current plan.

Or read : TWS Managing the Workload (chapter 12)
