Only one suggestion, Nancy.

The best practice is always use naming conventions for distinguish jobs between test and production.

For example, you have the job on test: BACKUP_JOB_TEST
On production side, you should use the similar: BACKUP_JOB_PROD

Try to install Oracle client version 10g.

In that case, and if I understand you correctly, you can do the follwowing: 1. Save your current jobs definitions as draft file (test). 2. Use Find&Update function and change CONTROL-M parameter (for example, from CTMtest to CTMprod) - in case you have one CTM server for test, and separated CTM serv...

Here is the principles:

1. Install Agent on Unix machine
2. create "tail" job, (and redirect output to file - optional)
3. In the "tail" job, set "On" parameter, when find anything you want in output, "Do" anything you want. (alert, corrective actions...)

Here is the explanation from BMC KB. It works, I tested it once. First code the batch file such that it can accept a value to be passed in. We can generally reference these positional parameters as %1, %2, and so-on. If you have a file called myscript.bat in c:\scripts that contains the following li...

I used Outlook (not Outlook Express!) for that. Use Outlook Rules to create rule based on specific subject/person or whatever you want and which will run script/exe file. Inside that file you can put CONTROL-M utility you need: ctmcreate, ctmcontb... it's your choice! :) In fact, you can use any mai...

Hello all, I know how to pass variable to script, but now I need opposite way... how to pass variable from script to CONTROL-M and define it as autoedit variable. Main goal ic to control system time on Linux machine through system time on Windows machine. So, I created bat script which can pick curr...

and the %%RESULT variable is "HHMM" .

Thanks, already solved it with %%SUBSTR, after little reading documentation and experimenting.

Is there any possibilities for analyzing CONTROL-M's sysout on more advanced way, using STEPS panel? Some cases scenario: 1). CTM must analyze the particular line of sysout for string "6250", and if found anything different than "6250" must finish with NOTOK. In fact, we need Boolean logic functiona...

Problem solved, using %%SUBSTR variable.

Anyway, thnx all!

Hello, ppl! How I can pass %%TIME auto-edit variable withous seconds, only in HHmm format? I need to pass current system date and time to unix command prompt and set date/time on unix machine. I successfully resolved variables for date (using $$DAY, %%MONTH, %%$YEAR), but i can't set variable for ti...

There are 3 possibilities (4 with the dummy job). 1) If all jobs in the schedgroup1 finished then starts the second schedgroup: put conditions in the scheduling group panel instead off in the job. 2) use the utility " cmdldnrs " see the documentation for the sintax. There are many ways to use it, d...

Hello all, I'm still having problem with "adjust condition" between jobs in 2 different scheduling group. Here is the problem explanation, I can send .drf file for better understanding: SCHED_GRP_1 Job_1_1-->Job_1_2-->Job_1_3-->Job_1_4 Job_1_1, Job_1_3 and Job_1_4 running every day. Job_1_2 running ...

If I understand correctly, jremo77 wants to read variable from script sysout and pass that variable to Control-M?
Your suggestion is OK, but this mean you must define variable manually in Control-M, without reading it from sysout. I think jremo77 want to avoid manual definition of variable.
