Before JAMS can execute a Job, additional information about your PeopleSoft environment will need to be provided. To get started, follow the steps below.
Configuring the Execution Method
-
Open the JAMS Client with a User ID that has the appropriate permissions to modify Execution Methods and create JAMS Jobs.
-
Under the Configuration group, click the Execution Methods shortcut.
-
Locate the listed PeopleSoft Job Execution Methods.
- If your organization’s PeopleSoft Process Scheduler runs on Unix or Linux, open the PeopleSoftJobSsh.
- If your PeopleSoft Process Scheduler runs on Windows, open PeopleSoftJobWindows.
- When the definition window opens, navigate to the Parameters tab.
- The first 16 parameters are labeled Additional_Parm_xx and are used later in the setup.
- After the parameter Additional_Parm_16, locate the parameter PS_ORACLE_HOME. Open the property by double clicking the parameter or highlight it and choose the Properties button.
- Enter the correct information in the Default Value field.
- Click the right arrow on the window header to move to the next parameter.
 |
Note: all parameters numbered between 17 and 25 must be reviewed. Below is a reference table that describes each parameter. These numbers can change since they can be manually adjusted within the JAMS Parameter tab view in the above screenshot. |
| # | Parameter | Description | Example |
| 17 | PS_ORACLE_HOME | Oracle Home | /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1 |
| 18 | PS_ORACLE_SID | Oracle Database Name | EP91DMO |
| 19 | PS_TUXDIR | Tuxedo Directory | /usr/local/psoft/Oracle/Middleware/tuxedo10gR3 |
| 20 | PS_HOME | PeopleSoft Home. You can use $ORACLE_SID as a variable. | /usr/local/psoft$ORACLE_SID |
| 21 | PS_CFG_HOME | Configuration Home | /usr/local/psoft/cfg850 |
| 22 | PS_SQRDIR | SQR Directory. You can use $ORACLE_SID as a variable. | /usr/local/psoft$ORACLE_SID/bin/sqr/ORA/bin |
| 23 | PS_SERVER_CFG | Server Configuration Home. You can use the $PS_CFG_HOME and $ORACLE_SID variables. | $PS_CFG_HOME/appserv/prcs$ORACLE_SID/psprcs.cfg |
| 24 | PS_JAMS_TMP | JAMS Temp Folder | /home/psoft/PS_CACHE/files/JAMS/ |
| 25 | PS_RUNLOCATION | Run Location | PSUNX |
Additional Parameters
There are two additional required parameters. These can be added to the parameters list at the Execution Method level for all Jobs that use that method, or integrated into the System or individual Job definition.
|
Note: If you define the DBInstance and DBType using the Execution Method, all Jobs associated with that method will inherit these values. It may be more appropriate to set these definitions within a JAMS system in order to inherit only to Jobs in the system or within a single JAMS Job. |
| Parameter | Description | Example |
| DBInstance | Database Instance/Name | EP91DMO |
| DBType | Database Type | ORACLEMSSQLDB2SYBASE |
