Re: IPL Job Table Cleanup

[Jerry Adams <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1 PM (1300 hours) is an unusual time to start cleanup.  Every operation 
that I've seen schedules it to run during "off" hours; though admittedly 
that's only a dozen or so sites.  Ours, for example, is scheduled for 
2300 hours.  Since we're not a 24x7 shop and are usually outta here by 
1700, and I don't get in until 0600 (usually the first in the building), 
that gives us a little cushion on both ends.

Since I have never tried to run cleanup in the middle of the day, I'll 
ask the question(s):

   * Would there be any potential problem(s) with running cleanup
     during the day?
   * If so, what might they be?
         o I would, for example, expect there to be an impact on
           performance, but have no idea how severe that might be.
         o And potential locks or conflicts of any nature?


Thanks.
