Synopsis
qalter [-sys subsystem-number](*1) queue-name parameter
[-sys subsystem-number] is an option of Systemwalker Operation Manager EE.
Description
The qalter command alters the queue attributes.
The following attributes can be altered:
Max submit jobs
Max execution jobs
Time lapse limit
Execution priority
Dispatch priority
Option
-sys subsystem-number
In the system with multiple subsystems, this option is used to specify the subsystem that you want to operate. Specify the target subsystem number using a range of 0 to 9. If omitted, the default is subsystem 0.
Operands
queue-name
Specifies the name of the queue whose attributes are to be altered.
parameter
Specifies the attribute and its value to be altered.
This operand can be specified more than one at the same time.
The attributes and values that can be altered are:
Max submit jobs
The range of possible values: 1-999
Max execution jobs (number of simultaneously executable jobs)
The range of possible values: 1-99 [Windows], 1-999 [UNIX]
Time lapse limit
The range of possible values: 1-99999999
Execution priority
The range of possible values: 0-63
Dispatch priority
The range of possible values: 0-4 [Windows], -20-19 [UNIX]
To specify those parameters, use the same format as for the Job Execution Control initialization parameters.
The following is an example where to specify "Max submit jobs" as five.
maxjob=5
Return Values
Return Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
0 | The command processing has terminated normally. |
Other than 0 | The command processing has failed. An error message is output. |
Command Location
Windows | <Systemwalker Operation Manager installation directory>\MpWalker.JM\bin |
Solaris | /usr/lib/mjes |
Privilege Required
System administrator (user belonging to the Administrator group or superuser) privileges are required.
Cautions
The altered attributes are retained until the Job Execution Control is activated in the initialization mode. Activating the Job Execution Control in the initialization mode resets the queue attributes to what is defined in the initialization file.
