Description
Despite the fact that clear_vir01 is specified in the job_list to run daily, it doesn't run.

Diagnosis/Resolution

1. Does the $alephe_scratch/jobd.log show clear_vir01 being released by the job daemon on the day/time that it should be?

2. Is the clear_vir01 batch queue ("lib_batch" in util c/1) running? It must be. Does util c/7 show clear_vir01 jobs waiting to run? If so, and if util c/1 shows the batch queue as running, that indicates a problem. See link to Article 000033361 ("util c/3 doesn't stop batch queue *MASTER RECORD*") below in that regard.

3. Check the vir01 $data_files/batch_log. If it shows "p_file_04" processes, that indicates that clear_vir01 is running. (p_file_04 processing of the z52 table is part of clear_vir01.)

4. If #1, #2, and #3 are all "yes" and there is no log for clear_vir01 in $alephe_scratch, then check the job_list entry. Does it have "N" in column 3? As described in Article 000039636 {"Job list, Column 3 (Queue Y/N)"}, if set to "N", the path for the job log must be set at the end (such as: > & alephe_scratch/clear_vir01 & . )
