Column Descriptions

The following descriptions explain the parameters used in the above tables:

• Batch Control ID. As described earlier, every background process has an associated batch control record. This column contains the unique identifier of each process' batch control record.

• Program Name. This is the name of the program.

• Description. This column describes each background process.

• Multiple Threads. This column indicates if the background process uses the thread number and thread count to control parallel processing. Refer to Parameters Supplied to Background Processes for more information.

• Extra Parameters. This column indicates if the background process uses additional parameters (in addition to those described under Parameters Supplied to Background Processes).

• Error Generates To Do. This column indicates if the background process generates a To Do entry for object-specific errors as described in Processing Errors.

• Records Between Commits / Minutes Between Cursor Re-Initiation. These values represent the maximum number of records between commits to the database and the number of minutes between cursor re-initiations. The process will issue a commit whenever the maximum records threshold has been exceeded. And, whenever a commit is issued, the process checks if the number of minutes between cursor initiation has been exceeded and if so, it will re-initiate the cursor. These values may be overridden when a specific background process is submitted. Refer to Parameters Supplied to Background Processes for more information.
