296 IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Best Practices
Assume further that there is another job stream (JS01) in the plan that has one
job, JB01 (Figure 12-6). This job stream has an input arrival time of 7:00 AM, and
its job (JB01) has the following properties:
It is a predecessor of JB11.
It has a time dependency of 3:00 PM.
Figure 12-6 Job JS01 added to the plan
Assuming that current time is, for example, 8:00 AM, and there is no other
dependency or no other factor that prevents its launch, which instance of JB11
will be eligible to run first: JB11(1) with an input arrival time 9:00 AM or JB11(2)
with an input arrival time 5:00 PM?
