Scheduling Conversion parameters for TWS

This table describes the Scheduling Conversion parameters for TWS rules. For more information, see Setting additional Tivoli Workload Scheduler (TWS) rules.

Parameter

Description

Use 'Exclude' RBCs (Control-M V8 FP1 or later)

Enables the Conversion Tool to convert TWS EXCEPT statements using the Rule Based Calendars feature added in Control-M V8 Fix Pack 1.

Do not convert "EXCEPT" statements

Determines that except statements are not converted to Control-M (default). An Error message WRN6022 is issued for each statement that is not converted. TWS ON statements are converted to Control-M rule-based calendars.

Convert "EXCEPT" statements to dummy jobs

Determines that a dummy job is created for each "EXCEPT" statement. The converted SMART folder depends on the condition(s) released by the dummy job(s). TWS "ON" statements are converted to Control-M rule-based calendars.

Convert "ON" and "EXCEPT" statements to dummy jobs

Determines that a dummy job is created for any "ON" or "EXCEPT" statement. This dummy job derives scheduling definitions from the corresponding statement.

The converted SMART folder depends on the conditions released by the dummy jobs, with an "OR" between conditions created from "ON" statements, and a logical "AND" between conditions created from "EXCEPT" statements.

In addition to the dummy jobs, "ON" statements are converted to rule-based calendars (otherwise the SMART folders are not ordered).
