Hi,

I am trying to reset and run an aborted job from the command prompt, but the job doesnt run.

It gives me a msg like this Waiting for job...
Finished waiting for job
Job Status : (3)

Status code = 3

I used this command:-

$DSHOME/bin/dsjob -run -mode RESET -warn 50 -jobstatus -local proj job_name

Can anyone help

Thanks

Status code 3 may mean that the job could not be reset. Check the job log.

Also note that 'reset' does not run, it just resets. You need to invoke dsjob twice if you want to 'reset then run' a job.

You probably need a -wait option to wait on the reset to finish as well.

Disagree. The -jobstatus option is a wait option. It's not that.
