Hi All,

Is it possible in any way to check the previous parameters of an Autosys job once the job is modified in the database?

Please throw in some light on the hows and whys of this...

Thanks!!!

possibly...

iirc the autosys DB stores every job with a unique joid in the job table.

If you jil over a job I think it gets a new joid.

So the info probably exists in the DB, but you'd need to try and work out what the old joid was..

HTH

I think only deleted jobs are retained until cleaned. I use a script to perform a daily autorep -j ALL -q and pipe the output to a new file. This enables me to get old ones back

why dont you maintain version of the files..

there are a lot of application like CVS, SVN, ClearCase, etc that can be used for maintaing a version in case of any change..

Just my 2 cents.
