WhatisdifferencebetweenONHOLDandONICEstatus?
Thedifferencebetween"onhold"and"onice"isthatwhenan"onhold"jobistakenoffhold,ifits
startingconditionsarealreadysatisfied,itwillbescheduledtorun,anditwillrun.Ontheother
hand,ifan"onice"jobistaken"office,"itwillnotstart,evenifitsstartingconditionsarealready
satisfied.Thisjobwillnotrununtilitsstartingconditionsreoccur.
Theothermajordistinctionisthatdownstreamjobsfromthejobwhichis"onice"willrun
asthoughthejobsucceeded.Whereas,alldependentjobsdonotrunwhenajobison"onhold.
WhataredifferentstartingconditionsforAutosysjob?
Autosysdetermineswhethertostartornottostartajobbasedontheevaluationofthestarting
conditions(orstartingparameters)definedforthejob.
Theseconditionscanbeoneormoreofthefollowing:
Dateandtimeschedulingparametersaremet(itisorhaspassedthespecifieddateandtime).

Forjobsinabox,theboxmustbeintheRUNNINGstate.
ThecurrentstatusofthejobisnotON_HOLDorON_ICE.
Everytimeaneventchangesanyoftheaboveconditions,Autosysfindsallthejobsthatmaybe
