Re: scheduled job to run every n minutes?

["Michael Ryan" <michaelrtr@xxxxxxxxx>]

I usually do this with a CL program that has a DLYJOB(n) in it. Like this:

TOP:
             RTVSYSVAL  SYSVAL(QTIME) RTNVAR(&CURRTIME)

/*   If the current time > parameter end time and the current */
/*   time < start time, end the process.                      */
             IF         COND(&CURRTIME *GT &ENDTIME *AND &CURRTIME +
                          *LT &STARTTIME) THEN(GOTO CMDLBL(END))

             CHGVAR     VAR(&ACTION) VALUE('P')
             CALL       PGM(HPCMDR) PARM(&ACTION &SITE &RDR &RETURN)
             DLYJOB     DLY(900)
             GOTO       CMDLBL(TOP)
