Managing EXECs by using the EXEC Management application

The EXEC Management application allows you to enable, disable, schedule, browse, and test the 

BMC AMI Ops Automation

 EXECs that you have stored in your SYSPROC or SYSEXEC concatenation.

Note

BMC AMI OpsA EXECs where you have specified DISP(NO) in the documentation box of the EXEC do not appear in this application.

For more information about BMC AMI OpsA EXECs, including documentation boxes, refer to the Using-advanced-automation-with-BMC-AMI-Ops-Automation.

The EXEC Management application allows you to

  • Schedule an EXEC to run
  • Select an EXEC for testing
  • Browse the contents of an EXEC
  • Enable and disable currently executing EXECs

The EXEC Management application also allows you to see things such as:

  • How many EXECs you have currently executing
  • Which EXECs are currently executing
  • How many EXECs you have queued to Normal or High priority queues
  • How many times a specific EXEC has executed since the last subsystem start
  • How much CPU time a specific EXEC has used
  • How many times a specific EXEC has abended

Every time an EXEC is executed in BMC AMI OpsA, CPU consumption statistics are saved. The only conditions where statistics are not kept for a specific EXEC is where the EXEC is initiated using

  • The TSO command EX (for example, TSO EX EXECABC)
  • The REXX CALL command
  • The CLIST SYSCALL command

The CPU time used for these EXECs is added to the calling EXEC.

Individual statistics also are not kept for EXECs called as external REXX functions.
