3965.0. "Housekeeping does not work after A1MUP030" by SHIPS::FARROW_S (Percy, Who's Queen...) Fri Mar 11 1994 16:56

    Has anyone else noticed that scheduled housekeeping jobs do not work
    after installing A1MUP030.
    
    The error in the log file is:
    
    
    Error opening primary input file SYS$INPUT 
    File not found
    
    You can see the job scheduled from ALL-IN-1 and on the batch queue.
    
    When I try to delete (or edit) the job from MHP I get the following error:
    
    Failed to update housekeeping schedule
    
    The only way to remove and then reschedule the job successfully is to
    delete from the VMS queue and then delete from MHP.

    this is the problem described in the STARS article
    
    [ALL-IN-1] After MUPA Install Housekeeping Jobs Fail 'error opening
    sys$input'
    
    it's because the house-keeping jobs are trying to run the version of
    SMJACKET pre-MUP - just blow away your hk jobs and resubmit them using
    the new SMJACKET and all will be well until you upgrade to the PFR.
                  
    or you could just rename SMJACKET to the version that the hk job wants
    on your system

    it was in the log for EW.

    Ann,
    
    	Possibly someone edited SMJACKET then purged it. 
    
    	The 'primary input file' for a batch job is the .COM file you are 
    	trying to run. When the job is submitted to batch, the version
    	number is recorded. If the .COM file (same version) doesn't exist
    	at run time, then the error you saw is returned to the log.
    
    Cheers,
    
    Iain.

    iain -
    
    nice idea, but i don't think so...
    
    dir/date SMJACKET.COM;1       30-MAY-1990 19:36:12.52
    
    there is only 1 smjacket.com in OA$LIB. could this happen if the system
    had a power outage?

    I can't remember exactly but isn't it the FILE ID that is recorded ... 
    so this could happen if the .COM is moved, replaced, or edited ...

    re .4
    
    EW ran fine over the weekend. no change was made to SMJACKET.COM.
    
    go figure....
