Re: Job Scheduler Question

Steve:
Couple of options. 
You could schedule the job once in the job scheduler and at the end of the
job have it resubmit itself for one hour later.  You could also check for a
certain time and if the system time was greater than a certain time, you
could not submit the job.  There is a schedule date and time on the submit
job command.  It is quite easy to extract the current system time RTVSYSVAL
QTIME to a variable in a CL program and add 1 to the hour and and use the
new value as the new hour to schedule the job.

Also, the DLYJOB would also work.

You could make multiple job entries in the AS400 job scheduler or

There are several 3rd party software packages that will allow you to
schedule a job and specify "run every hour".  Check out Help Systems Robot
or AS/Center (not sure who the vendor is)

Hope this helps.  If you need any help with the programming to have the job
resubmit itself, let me know.
