Scheduling the STRMNTBRM Command

You can process the STRMNTBRM command manually, or you can schedule it to run automatically at selected dates and times. You can process the STRMNTBRM command through either of the IBM® Advanced Job Scheduler for i5/OS, or through a user-defined scheduler.

To schedule the STRMNTBRM command on the i5/OS job scheduler, take the following steps:

1. Enter the ADDJOBSCDE command from any command line. This retrieves the Add Job Schedule Entry (ADDJOBSCDE) display.
2. Type STRMNTBRM in the Command to run field of the ADDJOBSCDE display.
