Job scheduling events format

The Tivoli Workload Scheduler Plus Module provides the means to identify and manage a set of predefined job scheduling events. These are the events that are managed using the TEC logfile adapter installed on the scheduling workstations. These events are listed in the following table together with the values of their positional fields. These positional fields are the ones used by the FMT files to define the event structure which, once filled up with the information stored for that specific event number in the log file, is sent by the TEC logfile adapter to the TEC event server. For additional information, refer to Job scheduling events.
