    I tried but it was not working
    can you please give me that condition
    also job A runs weekly and it has to run only once in a week And it can run on any day of week depending on job B success

    Hi Rishi,

     

    You can use look-back conditions to base dependencies for a job on the last run of another job.

     

    To specify a look-back dependency, enter the job name followed by a comma (,) then HH (hours), period (.) and MM (minutes).

     

    You can consult the following docops page for more detailed information:

     

    https://docops.ca.com/ca-wla-ae-wcc/11-4-2/en/scheduling/ae-scheduling/manage-your-jobs/dependent-jobs 

     

    Thanks,

    Roya

    One solution would be, as the others say, lookback and you need to decide on which day of the week you start waiting for Job B's success. Another solution might be filetriggers and/or resources between the two jobs. Good luck!

    Hi Rishi,

     

    The condition for Job A should be mentioned as

     

    condition: s(Job B, 0)

     

    • When you specify 0, CA Workload Automation AE examines the last end time of the job first. It then examines the last end time of the condition job. If the condition job has run since the last run of the job for which the condition is coded for, the job is allowed to start. If the condition job has not run since the last run of the job for which the condition is coded for, the job is not allowed to start.
