Advanced Job Scheduler
Job Scheduling Software for IBM i (as/400, iSeries) servers
Halcyon Advanced Job Scheduler enables organizations to schedule highly complex job streams and track these across different IBM i systems or across other servers to ensure that business processes are running smoothly, at the optimum time and at maximum efficiency.
Job Scheduler Features
- Import jobs from other schedulers, using the specialist migration utility and consolidate all your scheduling requirements
- A command list can be used to check appropriate conditions exist before jobs are processed
- Schedule inter-dependent jobs across your entire IT infrastructure, regardless of operating system
- Incorporate your own user programs to run unusual schedule patterns and interface to third party calenders
- Job progress, status and error messages can be sent to mobile phones, message queues, as emails or directly to the GUI Enterprise Console
- "Capture Mode" can capture Submit Job Parameters for later insertion into Advanced Job Scheduler job definitions so that you create jobs 'on-the-fly'
- Supports the use of multiple calendars, either directly, as scheduled data, or to set exceptions to regular pattern schedules

Job Scheduler Benefits
- Reduce the operator's workload by automating representative tasks to free up valuable resource time
- Make more effective use of system resources - jobs can be scheduled to run at the best time for your system, your operators and your users
- Reduce your operational costs by letting the Advanced Job Scheduler handle all your out-of-hours processing without having to pay expensive overtime costs
- Infrequently run jobs, such as those included in year-end processing, can be programmed to become part of the routine and do not become overlooked
- Important decisions that may affect the entire system can be pre-programmed by experienced staff so that junior or trainee operators don't have to make those decisions
- Extend automation further by scheduling tasks across different LPARs or networked servers and taking full advantage of the in-built cross-system dependencies
