<h1 class="topictitle1">Control inactive jobs and workstations</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>You can control the amount of time the workstation can remain inactive
|
||
|
|
before the subsystem sends a message (called time-out) by specifying a time
|
||
|
|
interval in the Time-out interval for inactive jobs (QINACTITV) system value.
|
||
|
|
Controlling inactive jobs provides security so that users do not leave signed
|

|
on displays inactive.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">How the system determines a workstation is inactive</h4><p>The
|
||
|
|
subsystem determines that a workstation is inactive if all of the following
|
||
|
|
are true:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>The job has not processed any additional transactions during the timer
|
||
|
|
interval.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> A transaction is defined as any operator interaction, like
|
||
|
|
scrolling, pressing enter, pressing function keys, and so on. Typing at the
|
||
|
|
workstation without pressing enter is not considered a transaction. If a job
|
||
|
|
at the workstation does not meet the inactive criteria, the job is considered
|
||
|
|
active.</div>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The job status is display wait.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The job is not disconnected.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The job status has not changed.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The subsystem in which the job is running is not in the restricted state.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Handling inactive jobs</h4><div class="p">To handle an inactive job
|
||
|
|
found on the system, use the When a job reaches time-out (QINACTMSGQ) system
|
||
|
|
value. To determine the processing options choose from the following:<ul><li>Set the QINACTMSGQ system value to a message queue name. <p>If you specify
|
||
|
|
a message queue name for the QINACTMSGQ system value, a user or program can
|
||
|
|
monitor the message queue and take whatever action is needed, such as ending
|
||
|
|
a job.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If a workstation with a secondary job pair is inactive, the system
|
||
|
|
sends two messages (one of each of the secondary job pairs) to the message
|
||
|
|
queue. The user or program can then use either the <span class="cmdname">ENDJOB</span> command
|
||
|
|
against one or both secondary jobs, or the <span class="cmdname">DSCJOB</span> command
|
||
|
|
against the active job at the display.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Set the QINACTMSGQ system value to *DSCJOB. <p>If you specify *DSCJOB
|
||
|
|
for the QINACTMSGQ system value, the system disconnects all jobs at the workstation.
|
||
|
|
The system sends a message that indicates that all jobs at the workstation
|
||
|
|
have disconnected from QSYSOPR or the configured message queue. (A configured
|
||
|
|
message queue is the message queue specified in the <span class="parmname">MSGQ</span> parameter
|
||
|
|
of the display device description. By default it is QSYS or QSYSOPR.) If the
|
||
|
|
interactive job does not support disconnecting the job (for example, TELNET
|
||
|
|
sessions that use QPADEVxxxx device descriptions), the job ends instead.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>A
|
||
|
|
message continues to be sent for each interval that the job is inactive.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Set the system value QINACTMSGQ to *ENDJOB.<div class="p">If you specify *ENDJOB for
|
||
|
|
the QINACTMSGQ system value, the system ends all of the jobs at the workstation.
|
||
|
|
The system sends a message that indicates that all jobs at the workstation
|
||
|
|
have ended to QSYSOPR or the configured message queue.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Source pass-through
|
||
|
|
jobs, client VTM (virtual terminal manager) jobs, and 3270 device emulation
|
||
|
|
jobs are excluded from the time-out because they always appear inactive. System/36™ environment
|
||
|
|
MRT jobs are also excluded since they appear as batch jobs.</div>
