administrators can control who uses terminal translation initialization — and when.
Scheduling
DEFINITY ECS’s functional scheduling allows you to specify the time a command will be executed or to specify that it should be executed on a periodic basis. Only commands that do not require user interaction after being entering on the com- mand line (such as list, display, test) can be scheduled.
DEFINITY ECS also supports scheduling of “one shot” requests — commands that are executed only once and then removed from the scheduling queue auto- matically by the feature, such as save translation commands.
Functional scheduling enhances administration. For example, scheduling of save translations is particularly important when large numbers of translation changes are made during the day, ensuring that they will be saved to tape at the specified time. The “one shot” report is particularly useful for scheduling large print jobs at night that are normally run only once.
