Autosys Troubleshooting

There are a number of things that can go wrong with Autosys, a job scheduling tool, and the specific troubleshooting steps will depend on the issue at hand. Some common issues and troubleshooting steps include:

Job status not updating: Check the event server log for error messages and ensure that the event server is running.

Job not running: Check the job definition and make sure that the job is enabled and that the schedule and conditions are met.



Job running too often: Check the job definition and make sure that the schedule and conditions are correctly set.

Job running too long: Check the job log for error messages and performance issues.

Job not starting: Check the machine status and ensure that the machine is available.

Job not stopping: Check the job log for error messages and ensure that the stop command is being sent correctly.

Job not being reported: Check the alarm_if_fail report and ensure that the report is set up correctly.

Job not sending email notification: Check the mail server configuration and ensure that the mail server is running and that the job is configured to send email notifications.

It is also important to check the Autosys documentation and log files for more information on the specific error message and troubleshoot accordingly.
