About this task

To view the details of a run cycle group in ISPF, follow these steps:
  1. In the MAINTAINING DATA BASES panel, select option 10 RUN CYCLE.

    The SPECIFYING RUN CYCLE GROUP LIST CRITERIA panel is displayed.

  2. Enter the information that leads to the selection of the run cycle group(s) you are seeking and press ENTER.

    The LIST OF RUN CYCLE GROUPS panel lists the run cycle group(s) listed by your selection.

  3. Enter B in the row command space next to the run cycle group you want to view.
    The RUN CYCLE GROUP IN THE DATABASE panel displays the following details:
    • The run cycle group ID and its description
    • The owner's ID
    • The input arrival time
    • The deadline, in terms of the number of days following the date of submission and a time in the HH.MM format, when the occurrences generated by the run cycle group should be complete.
    • The name of the calendar specified for the group
    • The name of the variable table used by the group
    • The number of run cycles that make up the group
    • The author and the date and time of the last update
    For every run cycle defined in the group, the following values are listed:
    • The name of the rule that identifies the run cycle.
    • The input arrival time, if different from the IA specified for the group.
    • The deadline, if any.
    • The type of run cycle (R, E, A, or D).
    • The free-day rule specified for the run cycle.
    • The in-effect and out-of-effect dates.
    • The variable table name, if different from the variable table specified for the group.
    • The run cycle description.
    • The subset name, if available.
    On each run cycle, you can enter the following commands to browse additional details:
    B or S
    Shows the frequency, type of day(s), and cycle specification (in terms of weeks, months, year, or period) defined for the rule.
    GENDAYS
    Displays the days generated by the run cycle, including the name of the calendar used, the interval (overlap) period, and the free-day rule type used.
    E
    Displays the EVERY options specified for the run cycle, which consists in the frequency with which an occurrence is to be repeated within a time interval (hours and minutes).

    None of the displayed information can be changed from this panel. Use the MODIFY (M) row command on the run cycle group in the LIST OF RUN CYCLE GROUPS panel to do so.
