Processing Variables (Legacy)

Field	Default	Valid Values	Description
Max number concurrent jobs	10	1 – 500	This field specifies the maximum number of jobs the agent is allowed to process concurrently. - When changing the value of this field, the configuration program displays the following message at the bottom of the screen: MAX JOBS changed - Remove *SMA/CP/MCS/= files Transmit "M" after receiving the warning message to confirm the change Refer to Update the "Max Number Concurrent Jobs" Field for additional procedures required to change this parameter.
Task level checking	N	- N - I - T	This field enables/disables the checking of a job's subordinate tasks to determine and to display the job's status in Enterprise Manager Operation. Note: Regardless of this setting, a task is always tested for a FailCode/Reset match. - If N, the agent does not perform Task-Level Checking. - If I, the agent fails the job immediately upon failure of a subordinate task. - If T, the agent sets the JOB TO BE FAILED internal flag upon failure of a subordinate task. A Fail Reset match resets the JOB TO BE FAILED flag to "N".
Fail immediately on FailCode	N	- Y - N	This field determines the agent's behavior upon a Fail Code match for either a task or a job. - If Y, the agent immediately fails the jobs upon a Fail Code match. - If N, the agent sets the JOB TO BE FAILED internal flag to "Y" upon a Fail Code match. A Fail Reset match resets the JOB TO BE FAILED flag to "N".
Task completion message	F	- F - A - N	This field determines if and when the agent sends a task completion message. Note: Task-level resource utilization statistics will be returned only if and when a task completion message is sent. For more information on resource utilization statistics, refer to Resource Utilization Statistics. - If F, the agent sends task completion messages for failed tasks only. - If A, the agent sends task completion messages for all tasks. - If N, the agent does not send task completion messages. ---- If the value is "A" or "F", the process name of the failed process and as much information as possible indicating the reason for the failure are stored within the database. The HISTORY task attribute is used to provide the failure information; values returned will be integers that correspond to the HISTORYTYPE, HISTORYCAUSE, and HISTORYREASON task attributes. Because of the excessive number of possible values and combinations for the history task attributes and the overhead required in translating them, the numeric values will not be translated to mnemonics by the agent. The associated meanings of these values may be found in the Unisys document, "Task Attributes Programming Reference Manual". The process name and failure information are returned in separate entries immediately following the job status description entry. This information will be visible in Enterprise Manager Operation > Job Information > Configuration > Operations Related Information.
Send Fail/Reset message	A	- A - F - R - N	This field enables/disables messaging during job processing to indicate Fail Code/Fail Reset matches. - The agent sends messages to Enterprise Manager Operation. - If A, the agent sends messages upon a Fail Code/Fail Reset match. - If F, the agent sends messages upon a Fail Code match. - If R, the agent sends messages upon a Fail Reset match. - If N, the agent does not send messages upon a Fail Code or a Fail Reset match.
Enable Statistics	N	- Y - N	This field determines whether to return job statistics appended to job status messages. - If Enable Statistics is N, then statistics are not returned. - If Enable Statistics is Y, statistics are returned.
Temp file family	<None>	Any valid family name	This field determines where the temporary files created by the MCP Agent will be placed. - If no family name is entered, the temporary files will be placed on the same family upon which the agent resides. - If a family name is entered, temporary files will be placed on the specified family.
Freq	N	- N - M - U	This field determines the units of a Checkpoint Interval. Refer to User-defined Restart/Recovery Checkpoints for more information on checkpoints. - At regular checkpoints, the agent saves tracking file and job array information for recovery and restart purposes. - The automatic recovery/restart process falls back on the data from the last checkpoint. - If N, the agent does not create user-defined checkpoints. - If M, the interval unit is by minute. - If U, the interval unit is by update to the job array.
Interval	0100	0 – 9999	This field sets the number of minutes/updates between checkpoints. - If the Checkpoint Frequency is M, then the interval is the number of minutes between checkpoints. - If the Checkpoint Frequency is U, then the interval is the number of job array updates between checkpoints.
