Modifying a job

This procedure describes how to modify an existing job in the SAP database.

Before you begin

Do one of the following:

• Windows: Open a new DOS prompt window.
• UNIX: Ensure that you are logged on as the Control-M/Agent user.

To modify a job:

• Type one of the following commands:
  • UNIX:

    ctmr3req -SAPR3-ACTION job_modify -SAPR3-ACCOUNT <account_name>

    -SAPR3-JOBNAME <job_name> -SAPR3-JOBCOUNT <job_count>

    -SAPR3-STEP-S<nn>-STEP_TYPE {A|C|E}

    -SAPR3-STEP-S<nn>-PROGRAM <program_name>

  • Windows:

    <Agent home directory>\CM\SAP\EXE\ctmr3req -SAPR3-ACTION job_modify

    -SAPR3-ACCOUNT <account_name> -SAPR3-JOBNAME <job_name>

    -SAPR3-JOBCOUNT <job_count> -SAPR3-STEP-S<nn>-STEP_TYPE {A|C|E}

    -SAPR3-STEP-S<nn>-PROGRAM <program_name> [-Agent <agent_name>]

  For a list of parameters, see job_modify action parameters.

  The remainder of the syntax for this action depends on the value of the -SAPR3-STEP-S<nn>-STEP_TYPE parameter, and subsequent parameter values. The Target Group and Target Server parameters are not supported by the ctmr3req utility in job define mode.

  EXAMPLE: The ctmr3req utility is used to modifying an existing job. The first five parameters are mandatory and the second step is being modified. Even if the step type is the same as it was previously it must still be set in the utility.

  ctmr3req -SAPR3-ACTION job_modify -SAPR3-ACCOUNT STAR -SAPR3-JOBNAME

  job1 -SAPR3-JOBCOUNT 13292201 -SAPR3-STEP-S02-STEP_TYPE A -SAPR3-
