Autosys Job Preference - start_times vs conditions?

meetgkg picture meetgkg · Feb 24, 2014 · Viewed 8.9k times · Source

if we specify start_time as well as conditions in autosys job, which get preference over another ??

For e.g. lets say start time for my job A is 06:00 AM but this job is also dependent on another job B (via conditions param) . But Job B gets becomes successful at 06:30 AM. So my job will start running at 06:00 AM or 06:30 AM ?

My guess is start time as well as conditions, both will be considered while running the job. So job should start at 06:30 AM. But i still want to be sure.

Start_time:- Job started means Activated or might be run, (if conditions are already met) at starting time.

Conditions:- Means job would run after given condition mate.

Example:- Suppose job A starting time is 11:00 PM and its condition is s(B)---->B should success, B is another job that would complete at 11:30 PM. In this scenario A started at 11:00 PM but it would in active state for 30 min. than it would in running state.
