release sched

You must have release access to the job stream.

Syntax

{release sched | rs} jstreamselect
     [;dependency[;...]]
     [;noask]

Arguments

jstreamselect

See Selecting job streams in commands.

dependency

The type of dependency. Specify one of the following. You can use wildcard characters in workstation, jstream, job, resource, filename, and promptname.

at[=time | lowtime | hightime | lowtime,hightime]

carryforward

deadline[=time[timezone | tz tzname][+n days | mm/dd[/yy]]]

follows=[netagent::][workstation#]{jobstreamname[hhmm [mm/dd[/yy]]][.job | @] | jobstream_id.job;schedid}| job[,...] [if 'condition_name[| condition_name][| ...]'][from join join_name]

Network agent workstations do not support folders, therefore neither the network agent nor the jobs or job streams running on them can be defined in folders. Folders are supported on all other workstation types, as follows:

 [follows {[folder/][workstation#]
[folder/]jobstreamname[.jobname]

The condition_name variable indicates the name of the condition defined in the job definition. Conditions must be separated by | and enclosed between single quotes. Conditions can be status conditions, based on job status, or other output conditions, based on a mapping expression such as a return code, output variables, or output found in a job log. In each follows statement, you can specify only one dependency type: either status or output conditions. At submission time, you can release status or output conditions. If the conditional dependency belongs to a join, if the number of conditions that must be met is different from ALL, the number is automatically reduced by one.

limit

needs[=[num] [[folder/]workstation#][folder/]resource[,...]]

opens[=[[folder/]workstation#]"filename"[(qualifier)][,...]]

priority

prompt[="[: | !]text" | [folder/]promptname[,...]]

until[=time [timezone|tz tzname][+n day[s]] [;onuntil action]]

noask

Specifies not to prompt for confirmation before taking action on each qualifying job stream.

Comments

When deleting an opens dependency, you can include only the base file name, and conman performs a case-insensitive search for matching files, ignoring the directory names. Dependencies on all matching files are released.

For needs dependencies, the released job stream is given the required number of units of the resource, even though they might not be available. This can cause the available units in a showresources to display a negative number.

When you release a job stream from a priority dependency, the job stream reverts to its original priority.

In certain circumstances, when you have submitted a deldep command, the command might have succeeded even though it is again forwarded to batchman. For more information, see Conman commands processing.
