IWMSESET – Scheduling Environments Set Resource

IWMSESET allows the caller to modify the state of a resource. A resource is an abstract element that can represent an actual physical entity (such as a peripheral device), or an intangible quality (such as a certain time of day). A resource has an ON, OFF, or RESET state.

A resource is a component of a scheduling environment. A scheduling environment is a list of resource names and their required states. By modifying the state of a resource you can:

• change a scheduling environment such that the resources are in the required state thereby allowing work to be scheduled,
• change a scheduling environment such that the resources are not in the required state thereby preventing work from being scheduled.
