Questions tagged [autosys]

CA Workload Automation AE (AutoSys Edition), known simply as AutoSys is a job scheduling and workload automation tool made by CA Technologies. Current version is R11.5. Unless you are asking a programming question about integration with the AutoSys SDK, your question is likely off-topic. Questions about the use of server management software should be directed to Server Fault.

AutoSys is job control software by CA Technologies for the scheduling and monitoring of tasks. Tasks can be defined in a GUI or a Job Information Language (JIL) file. An AutoSys SDK has been provided in recent versions for third-party Java and C++ software to interface with the system.
