1200.0. "Null Next Run Time" by NQOS01::rdodial_port15.32.81.16.in-addr.arpa::MCCARTY (Systems Integration) Mon Jan 13 1997 18:19

I have a customer who is running Scheduler version 2.1-209 on OpenVMS 5.5-2h4 
on a VAX. I recently upgraded to this version and the upgrade seemed to work 
fine. However, when two jobs that had a schedule interval of F Q 04:00 and F Q 
01:00 respectively, the jobs would resubmit themselves repeatily. The next run 
time would be set to 17-nov-1858 which is equal to a null on a date in 
OpenVMS. I had to modify the jobs to change the next run times so the jobs 
would not keep resubmitting. All other jobs seem to be working fine.

Any idea what happened? Will it happen again with these two jobs? What should 
I do about it?

NEver heard about this version. Scheduler follows the schema:
V2.1 and a letter - and a sequence no. like V2.1B-7 or V2.1A-9
The letter can be upcase for external usage and lowercase for internal usage.
What kind of version are you talking about?

All kind of version have some problems with the Fiscal Cal. Take a look in the
release notes of V2.1B-9 which is the latest for Vax and Alpha.

It could have to do with the base date or the current year. anyway, there is no
most prob. no way to get it solved it other than contacting CA.
