从 Control-M 中的订单日期减去 2 分钟

Question

In Control-M, I have a job that's scheduled 2 minutes after a batch interval ends, eg August 13th, 2021 at 00:02 (local time).

I need to pull files from a server on the format "YYDDMMHHMM.zip" and for example "HHMM" could be 2350 (10-minute frequency); the order time for that job would be 23:52.

How do I subtract 2 minutes from the order date/time? And if the system is running in a local time zone, how would one additionally express that result in UTC time? That is, the files on the server are timestamped in UTC time.

Answer 1

The date parameters in Control-M do not include minutes or seconds, %%$DATE will resolve the yyyymmdd value.

If you want yesterday's date (ie at 1 minute after New Day Processing you want the previous ODAT value) use the CALCDATE facility to subtract (or add) 'x' days.

If you really want minutes adding/subtracting then that is best done at Unix system level.

Control-M just takes the time/date from the local system time.

Answer 2

您可以使用“%%CALCDATE %%TIME -120”，但它会根据 control-m/服务器时间进行计算。
