Handling multiple tables under same ODATE - Control M Zos

Post by ashish.v80 » 27 Jan 2016 7:39

Hi All,

Need your help in trouble shooting the below scenario for Control M - Zos.

We have a set of 150 jobs which constitutes a cycle, the jobs gets triggered when the input file arrives in the ftp server.
The initial set of 100 jobs depend on the ftp trigger, while the remaining jobs depend on these 100 jobs.
For ease of understanding let me split the jobs into 3 - J1, J2 and J3.
J2 is dependent on J1 and J3 on J2.

When the input trigger arrives to mainframes, the table J1-J2-J3 gets loaded and starts execution.

Now the issue is, multiple files can arrive on the same day. so multiple instances of the same table gets loaded into CTM.

Suppose J3 of first instance is running and the 2nd input arrives, the second instance of table gets loaded and instead of the second instance starting from J1, all 3 jobs starts execution simultaneously,cos of the IN conditions satisfied by first instance under the same ODATE.

Is there any way to control this ?

Thanks in advance,
Ashimer
