The last page of back-up options now allows selection of ending jobs to
allow the unattended back-up to proceed as scheduled. This was a recent
enhancement and there were fixes to make it work properly.

Use AMZM41 05 (Change Backup Options)

Then you can choose to end jobs if needed.
END INACTIVE SESSIONS. . . . 1 0=NO, 1=YES

END ACTIVE SESSIONS. . . . . 1 0=NO, 1=YES

END BATCH JOBS . . . . . . . 0 0=NO, 1=YES

Hope this helps,

Subject: [MAPICS-L] XA Unattended backup in a 24/7 shop

We are currently doing XA unattended backup from the Job Scheduler
(WRKJOBSCDE). Now the plant has started running 24/7, we are having
some problems with XA getting a dedicated mode to do the backups. This
is a random problem. In the last two weeks it happened twice.
Is there any way to suspend (hold) a user while the saves are running
then start (release) them after? I know this is done for our 'U' jobs.
Any suggestions or ideals would be appreciated.
Thanks,
William Moore
