I have a customer reporting the following strange behavior on Operating System Info : Digital UNIX v3.2d-1 Hardware Info : 8400 Server, 2100 Agent Software Info : PolyCenter Scheduler v3.0-2: We have a job which refuses to schedule for 07-Apr saying "Job does not exist". It will schedule for 06-Apr or 08-Apr. Log Follows: SCHEDULE> show user Local User Name Access Privileges --------------- ----------------- sxrmc MANAGER SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "07-Apr-1996 02:01:00" SCHED-E-NOJOB, Job does not exist SCHED-E-CMDFAIL, Command failure SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "2-Apr-96 2:1:0" SCHED-I-JOBMODIFIED, Job BACKUP_RPTS(378) Modified SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "08-Apr-1996 2:01:00" SCHED-I-JOBMODIFIED, Job BACKUP_RPTS(378) Modified SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "09-Apr-1996 2:01:00" SCHED-I-JOBMODIFIED, Job BACKUP_RPTS(378) Modified SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "06-Apr-1996 2:01:00" SCHED-I-JOBMODIFIED, Job BACKUP_RPTS(378) Modified SCHEDULE> modify job backup_rpts select owner oracle schedule start_time "07-Apr-1996 2:01:00" SCHED-E-NOJOB, Job does not exist SCHED-E-CMDFAIL, Command failure Any ideas why the 7th is a bad day - seems any other date works?

This is strange. I'm sure engineering will respond to this and probably test it, but I'd like to know if you've checked the other fields related to scheduling for this job, such as (1) days of the week restrictions, (2) special days restrictions, (3) partition availability. | |||||
1052.2 | Something strange about 7-APR-1996 | MUZICK::MORIARTY | Tue Apr 02 1996 12:25 | 14 | |
This is a strange one. Yes it works for other times but not for 7-APR-1996. I get the same results. We will have to look into this one, but there is definitely a problem here, a strange one, very strange. Even worse when I create a job with that date it returns "duplicate job". There is definitely a bug here. We will have to take a hard look at it. I will have someone post a workaround to allow you to continue. Because we certainly will not have a patch for you in the next five days. Sorry the inconvenience, and thanks for informing us about the problem. | |||||
1052.3 | Daylight Savings Time | MUZICK::RITCHIE | Elaine Kokernak Ritchie, 227-3089 | Tue Apr 02 1996 13:52 | 11 |
The problem is a combination of April 7th and the time chosen. Here in the U.S., Daylight Savings Time begins the first Sunday in April. Thus, there is no "2:00" through "2:59". Scheduler is not handling this correctly, and we'll put this on our list of things to fix. In the meantime, choose 1:59 or 3:00 to get the job to run. You may have to create a new job, once the existing job is corrupted. Elaine |
