abnormal end
A jobnet ends abnormally if one of the processes defined in the jobnet fails to execute properly. The jobnet
is interrupted at that point and subsequent processes are not executed.
A job ends abnormally if it fails to execute properly. The process is interrupted at that point.
The embedded database system ends abnormally when an error causes its status to change from active to
stopped or paused, without any intervention by the user. For details, see D. How the Embedded Database
Operates in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Troubleshooting.
abnormal threshold
A value that is compared with a job's return code to evaluate whether the job ended normally or abnormally.
action job
A job that sends email, or sends events reporting the system status to JP1/ IM or the HP NNM.
agent host
A host that executes jobs on request from a manager host. JP1/AJS3 - Agent must be installed on the agent
host, or since JP1/AJS3 - Manager also provides JP1/AJS3 - Agent functionality, JP1/AJS3 - Manager
might be installed on the agent host.
The agent host executes the job on receipt of a job request from the manager host. At completion of the
job, the agent host receives the execution result (return value) of the executable file and forwards it to the
manager host.
AJS administrator
A user that has access permissions almost equivalent to superuser permissions for JP1/AJS3. Only one of
the JP1/Base administrators in the JP1 administrators group can be designated as the AJS administrator.
An ordinary user designated as the AJS administrator can perform such JP1/AJS3 system management
operations as specifying the environment settings and starting and stopping services.
AJS3 unit monitored object
An object for monitoring the status of root jobnets in JP1/AJS3. By defining the monitoring conditions in
this object, you can then switch to monitoring mode and monitor the root jobnets.
AJSPATH
An environment variable for defining the paths used by JP1/AJS3. When this environment variable is
defined, you do not need to specify the full path when specifying a jobnet name in a command.
automatic retry
A function that automatically retries execution of a job if the executable file defined for the job terminates
abnormally. Because jobs that have terminated abnormally due to a temporary error might be able to run
normally when automatically retried, this function can improve the system availability.
backup box
A directory or a folder for storing backup files.
