Interfacing with Third-party Scheduling Products

Event-driven reporting capabilities provided by products such as UNISON's Maestro or CA's Unicenter can be integrated with Lawson application jobs. Lawson provides two utilities, wtsubmit and jqsubmit, for executing jobs created using third-party scheduling tools. These utilities are able to make use of all services provided by the Lawson Job Scheduler.

The wtsubmit waits for a job to finish running before giving control back to the calling script or shell. This utility can only be used with single-step jobs.

The jqsubmit utility does not wait for a job to finish running before giving control back to the calling script or shell, and can be used with single- or multi-step jobs.
