1.8 Named Times

Named Times are used to provide flexible windows of time when Job's may be scheduled. JAMS can prevent Job's from starting until their Named Time window is enabled and can take various actions when a Job's window closes before the Job completes.

Named Times can be maintained with the command, screen or Motif based interfaces. They can be enabled and disabled with the command based interface.

Time Name

This field is a unique identifier for this Named Time.

A Time Name must be a valid OpenVMS identifier. This means that it must begin with an alphabetic character and contain only the characters A-Z, 0-9, $ (dollar sign), and _ (underscore). Also the last character may not be an underscore.

Description

The description is used in menus, lists and reports to provide a more complete description of the Time than provided by the Named Times identifier.

Start Time

This is the time of day when the Named Time is scheduled to be enabled.

End Time

This is the time of day when the Named Time is scheduled to be disabled.

Automatic Enable

This field specifies whether or not the Named Time should be automatically enabled. If not automatically enabled, the Named Time will remain disabled until the ENABLE TIME time-name command is used to manually enable the Named Time.

Automatic Disable

This field specifies whether or not the Named Time should be automatically disabled. If not automatically disabled, the Named Time will remain enabled until the DISABLE TIME time-name command is used to manually disable the Named Time.
