To create the job queue

Note:

The Job Queue name must match an existing IBM i JOBQ.

  1. Go to menu GH9013 and start the Job Queues application (P986130).

  2. On Job Queue Revisions, complete these fields as described below, and then click OK.

    • Host = Enter the Enterprise Server name.

      Job Queue = Enter the Job Queue name. (Ensure that the Queue name matches the batch queue name on the IBM i. All IBM i can use the batch queue QBATCH as their default.)

      Default Queue = Select this option.

      Job Queue Status = Enter 01.

      Queue Type = Enter 02.

      Maximum Batch Jobs = This number must match the TC throttle for the plan. It must less than or equal to the MAXACT on the IBM i JOBQ entry in QBATCH.

      Port Number = For release 9.1 the Port Number is 6017. Ignore the “Network Failed" error if it occurs.

  3. Add another queue called I-ACTIVE.

    Set the maximum number of jobs equal to the maximum number of jobs the queue runs (set the queue for IBM i). Batch processes calling other batch processes use this queue; so define it as type JDEdwards, regardless of the platform.
