+DEADLINE


The +DEADLINE parameter specifies the number of minutes allowed for the Change Apply phase of BMC AMI Reorg.

+DEADLINE is set by the configuration job, usually UBMCCNTL(NGT$GLBL). You can override this parameter in individual utility jobs with the UTLPARMS DD. You can set the value of this parameter dynamically at utility runtime using the XSUTGLOB-global-variable-definition-automation-control-point

Important

You can use the +DEADLINE parameter only with BMC AMI Reorg.

The values are defined as follows:

0

(default) Indicates that no deadline should be used

numberMinutes

A value from 0 to 255, indicating the number of minutes

BMC AMI Reorg is shipped with a recommended +DEADLINE parameter setting of 120.

If the deadline is reached without Change Apply completing, the product issues message NGTR859 CHANGE APPLY DEADLINE LIMIT OF xxx MINUTES REACHED and the job terminates.

Example
+DEADLINE(5)

BMC AMI Reorg terminates processing if Change Apply cannot complete in five minutes.
