Order Job without Force not accepting new jobs.

Hi All,

I am new to Control-M and have been having problems with attempting to submit a job via the tool (windows job) running on Windows 2003 Server with SQL Database. (Test environment in office to get familiar with product first).

When I order a job (without force), it fails to add the job to the Order queue (simple job with just command line to run "date command"). The attended training course submitted the job without problems, but now am back in the office can't get it to work without FORCING the job.

NB- Ordering job as an online not workspace job.

When I order the job with Force, it seems to be accepted by the Control-M Server without issues.

If anyone has run Control-M with a Windows Client, Windows Server and SQL Server Back end DB running a "command" type job, I would like some tips. I Thought a basic command job should run without problems.

Check your scheduling. Ordering a job means that the job's scheduling criteria would indicate that the order date is a positively scheduled day. Forcing a job means ignore the scheduling criteria.
