PROC_TYPE

By default, when a job is submitted to a batch queue the user processes are assigned the process type associated with that queue. A process type is simply a definition of the resource requirements used by a particular class of jobs. For example, there may be a queue setup that is designated for processes that need 2GB of disk and use 75% CPU. A process type would be defined in FBSNG configuration that specifies these specific resource requirements. It may be necessary to submit a job to this queue that does not fit this process type. Overriding a queues default process type is done by the PROC_TYPE JDF field. FBSNG will use the process type specified in this field rather than the process type specified for the queue if this is specified.
