Hi,
I have a requirement where in I need to find the list of all predecessors of a job. Could some one guide me in this if this can be done using DFSORT.
I have two seperate files
File 1 - FB 80 (List of jobs for which the predecessort list needs to be identified.
File 2 - FB 80
Original Job - Pred Job (Immediate)
| Code: |
Jobname1|Jobname2
Jobname1|Jobname3
Jobname2|Jobname4
Jobname2|Dummyjob
Jobname3|finaljob |
My output should be
| Code: |
Jobname1|Jobname2|Level 1
Jobname1|Jobname3|Level 1
Jobname1|Jobname4|Level 2
Jobname1|Dummyjob|Level 2
Jobname1|finaljob|Level 2
Jobname2|Jobname4|Level 1
Jobname2|Dummyjob|Level 1 |
In my site, we are using OPC scheduler, in which there are options to view the above output information for a particular job operation in online, but I need them in an output file format for analysis which couldn't be generated. There are option only for reporting the immediate predecessor list for the jobs but not beyond that.
Thanks
Bharath |

Hi Nic,
OPC gives only a report "Internal and External Dependancies' which gives the immediate pred and successor details as denoted in File 2 of my requirement ( I produced the File 2 using Rexx on top of the OPC report) and not to the levels after that. |

Original Job - Pred Job (Immediate)
Code:
| Code: |
Jobname1|Jobname2
Jobname1|Jobname3
Jobname2|Jobname4
Jobname2|Dummyjob
Jobname3|finaljob |
Jobname2, Jobname3 etc. are NOT pred jobs but successor jobs.
And how about external dependencies? |

Hi Peter,
I would explain my file 2 in the requirement in detail again for better understanding.
My File 2 contains the predecessort job of all the jobs in column 2 (after the seperator '|')
Job 1 has a predecessor of Job 2 and 3
Job 2 has a predecessor of Job 4 and Dummyjob
Job 3 has a predecessor of finaljob
If I want the complete list of predecessors of Job 1, then the output would be
Job1 - Job2
Job1 - Job3
The above records are level 1 because they are immediate.
Also Job 1 has the following level 2 predecessors because of Job2 and Job3
Job1 - Job4 (Pred of Job2)
Job1 - dummyjob (Pred of Job2)
Job1 - final job (Pred of Job3)
Say suppose, in case there is a predecessor for Job 4 in file 2 as Job5, then it will be a Level 3 pred of Job1. So, my output file should contain the following line as well
Job1|Job5|Level 3
While I generate the report of file 2 for all the immediate predecessors of the jobs in my schedule, I have taken care of both Internal and external predecessor as well. |
