    Description:
    We have created two procs:

    one to move the abc50 $data_tab/tab_16.1 (which has an Actual due date of Monday) to tab16 and
    another to move tab16.2 (which has a one day loan period) to tab16.

    We then include these lines to re-initialize the z301 in each proc:

    $aleph_proc/util_a_17_b table Z301
    $aleph_proc/util_a_17_b index Z301

    We want the first to execute on Thursday night and the second to execute Sunday night.

    We have these entries in the job_list for them:

    01 10:40:00 N tab16_1.log csh -f /aleph/proc/p_switch_tab16_1 ABC50
    01 10:45:00 N tab16_2.log csh -f /aleph/proc/p_switch_tab16_2 ABC50

    But we find they don't work and we see this in the $alephe_scratch logs:

    tab16_2.log_12419080:
    /aleph/proc/p_switch_tab16_2: No such file or directory

    Resolution:
    You need to change the job_list entries to these:

    01 10:40:00 N tab16_1.log csh -f /app/exlibris/aleph/a18_1/aleph/proc/p_switch_tab16_1 ABC50
    01 10:45:00 N tab16_2.log csh -f /app/exlibris/aleph/a18_1/aleph/proc/p_switch_tab16_2 ABC50

    Note: in version 19-up, column 3 *must* be "N" if column 5 is "csh -f ...".
