I have 4 jobs. I have created a group using Control-M, that contain all these jobs,
i scheduled these job in such a manner that all jobs scheduled on 15th of every month.
My problem is that jobs are scheduled but i need to order on that day.
Is there is any way so that submission is not required each time??

Please explain clearly what it is that you wish to achieve.
Do you mean that you want the jobs to run in a specific order when scheduled.

Hi,

how are other jobs currently loaded ?

All you need to do is talk to your scheduling group and have your table included in the job that currently loads other jobs.

Usually new day processing starts the ball rolling. It loads the job that will run and scan specified libraries and tables and if the scheduling criteria meets then the jobs will be loaded onto the AJF.

As your jobs have been defined to run on the 15th of each month, they will only load on that day.


Check the distributed JCL library usually named CTL.*.INST.JCL(DAILYSYS), this is the job provided by BMC to load jobs, it needs to be tailored.

Ordering we can control throgh job definition or group definition.
I dont want to control the sequence.
All jobs under that group are controlled according to "SCHEDULE TAG" field in group definition.
I have this tag to schedule on 15th of every month.
So all jobs that comes under this group scheduled accordingly.

Hi gcicchet,
Code for CTL.*.INST.JCL(DAILYSYS) is like this
Code:
//SYSDAILY EXEC CTMDAILY,                                         
//            DATEREC=DATERECU                         <== CHANGE
//DAJOB    DD DISP=SHR,DSN=&OLPREFM..SCHEDULE(TABLE3)  <== CHANGE
//         DD DISP=SHR,DSN=&OLPREFM..SCHEDULE(TABLE4)  <== CHANGE
//                                                               


So do we need to specify the table name here to load the job automatically.
My table name is "DGCVPG1.V831.TEST.CTRLM(RGNCLN)"

Hi,

like I said earlier, you must currently have a job that scans the scheduling tables and loads the definitions onto the AJF.

You just need to concatenate your library as above.

and the reason for this ?

There is really no other way to automate it, that's why you have a scheduling tool, to automate the scheduling process.

By the way the job is automatically submitted by Control-M.
