Schedule not kicking off

Post by mydearsyed »

We have an Overnight process that is scheduled to start at 00:15 hrs.But it is not starting at all .This has caused a huge problem with the batch run .There are no logs available during that time in Event Viewer as well.
Is there any way I can check if it was an OS fault or a Datastage issue.

Another observation is that the user account used to logon on to thte machine is locked.

Would unscheduling and rescheduling the job help.

Regards

What tool are you using to schedule the job?

If it's DataStage Director, check with your operating system administrator as to why there was a failure in AT - for example was the Schedule service not running at the time?

Open a DOS shell and type the command AT (with no command line arguments). This will show you the queued jobs.

I have recently seen this happen if the user id the job is scheduled to run as does not have appropriate permissions to the project directory.
