Restarting ended-in-error operations managing cleanup action
About this task
To restart an operation that ended in error performing a cleanup action, enter the
RC (restart and cleanup) row command beside that operation in the HANDLING OPERATIONS ENDED IN ERROR
panel. The following panel is displayed:
From this panel you choose among the restart and cleanup functions. For step restart, see Restarting an operation from a certain step. Also, refer to Restart and cleanup for more information about setting cleanup options.
For
job restart or step restart, perform the following steps:
- Select job restart or step restart for an operation. If cleanup is required, confirm that the cleanup type is other than none.
- For step restart only, the Step RESTART SELECTION panel is displayed. Enter the GO command, and the MODIFYING THE CLEANUP ACTION panel is displayed.
- In the MODIFYING THE CLEANUP ACTIONS panel, enter the GO command. If you specified Y (yes) for the Edit JCL option in the OPERATION RESTART AND CLEANUP panel, you can correct the JCL. The CONFIRM RESTART panel, shown in EQQMERTP - Confirm restart, is displayed.
The start cleanup options can be requested only for an operation with the cleanup type set to automatic, immediate, or manual. You can also issue a job restart or step restart to perform the cleanup together with the job run instead of separately before the run.
When you restart a job, you can give a reason, which is written to the track log for audit purposes.
When
you confirm the restart, HCL Workload Automation for Z:
- Resets the operation status to ready.
- Initiates any cleanup actions.
- Resubmits the operation when all conditions are met.
If you cancel out of restart and cleanup, the statuses are reset to their original values.
