Customizing job processing on a Windows workstation - djobmanrc.cmd

The following conditions apply:

• The script must contain all environment application variables or paths necessary for HCL Workload Automation to launch correctly.
• The script must exist if a user-specific environment for running job is required or if an email must be sent to the job logon user when the HCL Workload Automation job ends in error.

To create a custom djobmanrc.cmd script, perform the following steps:

1. Logon as the user who defines environment variables for launching HCL Workload Automation jobs.
2. Open a DOS command prompt.
3. Type the set command redirecting standard output to a flat file named user_env.
4. Create a file named djobmanrc.cmd in the user's Documents and Settings directory with the following default text at the beginning:

   @ECHO OFF
       echo Invoking %USERNAME% DJOBMANRC.CMD V.1
       set USERPROFILE=%USERPROFILE%
       ::Setup User Environment Phase

5. Edit the user_env file created in step 3.
6. Insert the set command on each line before each environment variable.
7. Add the changes to the PATH variable at the end of the djobmanrc.cmd in a string similar to the following:

   set PATH=<TWSHOME>;<TWSHOME>\bin;%PATH%

8. Add the following text at the end of the user_env file and replace the string user email id with the email ID of the user that receives the email notification if the job ends in error.

   set EMAIL_ID=<user email id>
       ::Launch Operation Phase
       %ARGS%
       ::Post Operations Phase
       :out

9. Add the updated user_env file to the end of the djobmanrc.cmd file. The edited djobmanrc.cmd file should look like the following example:

   @ECHO OFF
       echo Invoking %USERNAME% DJOBMANRC.CMD V.1
       set USERPROFILE=%USERPROFILE%
       ::Setup User Environment Phase

       ::Post Operations Phase
       :out

The Post Operations Phase in the script is where a job exit code might be re-adjusted from ABEND to SUCC state, changing a non-zero exit code to a zero exit code. Some applications might have exit codes that might be warnings. HCL Workload Automation evaluates exit codes as either zero or non-zero. Zero exit codes indicate a job in “SUCC” state. All other codes indicate a job in ABEND state. Specific non-zero exit codes can be adjusted if necessary. The following example shows what might be included in the Post Operations Phase. The example retrieves the exit code of the defined job to determine how to handle itbased on the If statements:

set EMAIL_ID=johndoe@yourcompany.com
    ::Launch Operation Phase
    %ARGS%
    ::Post Operations Phase
    set RETVAL=%ERRORLEVEL%
    if “%RETVAL%”==“0” goto out
    if “%RETVAL%”==“1” set RETVAL=0
    if “%RETVAL%”==“6” set RETVAL=0
    :out
    exit %RETVAL%
