RE: Submitting Jobs to QBATCH

["Mark A. Manske" <mmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Time to expound your batch subsystems -

Here are a couple of suggestions -

Create multiple jobqs and attach them to the qbatch subsystem,
one jobq will be single threaded for your sales jobs, and the
other will not, thus allowing you to have qbatch handle multiple
jobs at the same time.

The other way is to create subsystems that are single threaded,
and attach that jobq (different from your other jobs).

It depends on how you prefer to "chop" up your system, how much
memory you have, and how comfortable you are with performance
tuning - if you are short on these skills, allow me to suggest
the first option; bump up qbatch subsystem to say 5 jobs, have
a jobq set up for single thread for the sales and a jobq for
running other jobs that do not matter, and set that to 4,
now you will have a choice of where to go, and hopefully
you will not need to tune your memory pools.

Hi Everyone,
            I need some help. We have are QBATCH subsystem setup to only
run one job at a time. This is so that when running sales reports, only
one will run at a time (Some of the reports update files that other
reports will read, so that is why). By the way I didn't write these
report programs:-). Well this is the problem..When a report is in QBATCH
running, I have to wait for it to finish before my submitted job will
run. The reports take about 30 min. This is to long for me to wait. My
boss told me to change my submitted job to the QINTER subsystem to run.
I don't think this is a good idea, but I don't really know. Any ideas?
