Object: Active Path Analysis

As the module ana.ActivePaths this module searches for active paths of runnable objects. Additionally, the module does further analysis. Therefore it uses executions if available. The period of the executions can be defined by options.

End of time period
show calendar events only (calendar-keywords-only)
Only shows the calendar events in the columns of the result file
hide column 'calendars (none)' (hide-not-calendars)
hides the column with the calendars that should not match
ID (id)
An identifier for the department the jobs belong to
Label (label)
A description or the department the objects belong to

Description​

The results of the analysis are saved in a file in CSV format with the following columns:

  • Object name: Name of the object
  • Active: Defines whether the path found is active. Not only 'yes' and 'no' are possible as values, but also 'possible'. This value indicates that although there is no active path, statistics records are available.
  • Object type: Type of the object
  • Calendar (all): Calendars that are linked for the objects in the path and must all apply
  • Calendar (one): Calendars that are linked to the objects in the path and one of which must apply
  • Calendar (none): Calendars that are linked to the objects in the path and none of which may apply
  • Start times: Based on the start times from the statistics, the start times of a day are listed. If the analyzed path contains a time or file event, the interval from the event is specified here.
  • Agents: Agent on which the object is started. Both are specified for FileTransfers.
  • Number of runs: Counts the runs of the object in the specified time period
  • Number of failed runs: Counts the runs of the object in the specified time period that were not successful (ANY_ABEND)
  • Last run: Timestamp of the last run
  • Path: List of objects that make up the path. The sequence number is also specified for workflows and the start time for schedules
  • Direct parent: Name of the object that starts the analyzed object directly
  • Title: Title of the object
  • ID: An identifier that can optionally be defined when the module is started
  • Name: A name that can optionally be defined when the module is started

The two columns for the number of runs can contain the value -1. In this case, more statistics records were found in the specified period than the GENERIC_STATISTICS_LIMIT setting from UC_SYSTEM_SETTINGS allows. To obtain the actual number, either the time period can be shortened or the limit raised.
