This section explains how to define the job owner information.
Outline
You must define the job owner information if you have selected the Execute job under the respective job owner's authority option on the Options sheet of the Define Operating Information window.
When using Systemwalker Operation Manager, a user having job owner privileges can execute jobs if his or her password has been set as the job owner information.
If Execute jobs under the respective job owner's authority has been specified, all jobs and job nets requested from users whose Status is "Undefined" in the Define Job Owner's Information window will terminate abnormally.
Definition procedure
The following explains the procedure for defining job owner information for scheduled jobs and on-demand jobs.
Definition procedure for scheduled job owners
If a project was defined using the standard procedure, the job owner information can be defined by specifying the owner and the owner password in the New Project window.
However, if Execute jobs under the respective job owner's authority is enabled in the Options sheet of the Define Operating Information window after the project is defined, use the following procedure to define the job owner information:
Display the Define Job Owner Information window.
Display this window by using one of the following methods:
Open the Define Operating Information window and the Options sheet. Select Execute jobs under the respective job owner's authority to enable the Set Job Owner button, and then click it.
Click Job owner in the Systemwalker Operation Manager Environment Setup window.
Ensure that the registered project owner is displayed in the User ID column.
Set a password in the Define Password Information dialog box.
Select the target user in the Define Job Owner's Information window, and then select Define from the User menu. The displayed Define Password Information dialog box appears. Enter password information.
If the entry is properly authenticated, the "Defined" for the target user will be displayed in the Status field of Define Job Owner Information window.
Note
If there are multiple projects with the same owner in the Define Job Owner's Information window, and password information is defined to a project with "Undefined" password information, it will also be applied to all the other projects (that have "Undefined" password information). The status will be changed to "Defined" when the screen is refreshed.
However, if the password information is changed for a project where the password information is already "Defined", only the definition for that project will be changed.
