Scenario :
Job A - to be started at 2230 PM everyday ( mo-fr )
Job B - Need to start after 4 hours Jobs A started,irrespective of the Jobs A status .Even if Job A has failed/Succeeded/Terminated/Running Job B should start 4 hours after Job A started.It cannot be set to 0230 AM next day because Job A itself is dependent on some other job which doesnt have specific time.
I need help on settting up date_conditions for Job B
Thanks in Advance

Job A can start the same time as a wrapper script that does a sleep 240 and runs job B. They should be in a Box together and so run on the same conditions. As far as i can see, delay in autosys is just for restarts, clocks and conditions run the rest.
A sleep is simpler than a command to dynamically schedule job B to run one time in 4 hours from clock, but that would be better in case of restarts, assuming 4 hours with 2 hours of downtime is the right sort of 4 hours.
Thanks DGPickett
I cant merge Job A and Job B into same scripts.Some bussiness limitations.
Taking your suggestion i have done below :
Job A : starts at 2230
Job C: starts at 2230 having same conditions are Job A with command : sleep 240
Job B : dependent on SU(job C) ...
Do you see any loophole in this?
