How to schedule a job to run every 10 minutes in TWS

scheduled-taskschedulertask-schedulertivoli

TWS is Tivoli Workload Scheduler.

I have scheduled a job, and made it repeatable every 10 minutes. I put it in a job stream with a run cycle of daily.

Now, the job runs once every ten minutes on the first day, twice on the second day and so on.

What is the correct way to schedule a job in TWS to run many times every day?

Is there anything wrong with this job definition:

Best Answer

If you use TWS/d,

  • you add your job into a jobstream.

  • right click at the job

  • select properties

  • select time restrictions

  • select repeat range ( from hh:mm to hh:mm and how often )

Then you also have to define which days in week / month / year the job shoudl run

  • click at the "run cycle" icon

  • click at the "add run cycle" icon

  • select which days the job should run

Save job stream
