Setting the manual intervention required flag

In a manual intervention situation, perform the following steps:

  1. Analyze message BMC44242I.This message provides complete information about the process that was running when the error occurred and the reason the message was issued. For an explanation of the reason code, see the APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL messages in the BMC Documentation Center.

    You should also analyze the other messages written to the job log to get further information about the error condition.

  2. Determine which actions you should take so that you can restart the job step.
  3. Correct the condition that caused the error.
  4. Reset the Manual Intervention flag. You must use one of the following methods; the first method is easier:
    • Set the Manual Intervention Override processing option to Y in the global options record, system options record, job step options record, or BCFSYSIN data set. This option allows BCF to reset the flag automatically; you can retry the operation that previously failed without updating the job step execution record in the REGISET. If you already have this option set to Y, you do not need to take any action. For more information, see Manual-Intervention-Override.
    • Manually set the Manual Intervention Required flag to Y in the execution control record:
      1. Access the Active Jobsteps Display panel (see the figure in Accessing-execution-control-records).
      2. Enter action code M to the left of the record you want to update.
      3. Set the Retry manual intervention field to Y on the Active Job Status Modification panel (see the figure in Modifying-an-execution-control-record).
  5. Restart the job step. If the job step fails again, take more corrective action and perform Steps 1 through 4 again.
