I need to create a process where Job D triggers Job E. However, I need to make Job E wait 15 minutes after Job D completes. There are jobs that run before Job D so I can not simply use the submit time feature. Job D & E are scheduled differently under three different scenarios. Is there a JCL, othjer program, or CA7 command that can automate this 15 minute pause?

Thanks,

Hello,

What can be accomplished by waiting 15 minutes after one job completes to start another. . .

Hi,

You can use the command demand,job=JOBNAME,time=+15. You might have to put this in a seperate BTI job which must in turn be triggered by Job D.

Hope this helps

Thanks Jonnie!
I am actually going to use CA-Opera to demand in the next job!

Does anyone know how to schedule the BTI job? What I mean is, I am required to enter my user name and Ca7 password in the JCL library, this violates my security rules. I would love to schedule a program that could do the above command.

Any suggestions?

Thanks !!
