Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
if the jobs have a /AFTER time specified, and that time has already passed (according to the system time), then this is intended behavior.
Kalle already mentioned the potential of incorrect clock setting.
If no starting time is specified, then they run immediately. In that case, it may well be that the entire environment necessary for the run has not been set up or started.
If the latter is the case, then you COULD start with code to check if the job can already run, and wait or resubmit if not.
hth
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
I would want to know the actual times displayed for the queue and the system time at startup.
I would suggest an experiment: Do a full listing of all of the jobs in the queue; and then restart the machine.
Then do a display of the queues following the restart.
I have also seen some systems that are setup to re-submit batch jobs on startup. Have the startup processing been checked to ensure that this is not what is being seen?

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
The batch queue has jobs that are supposed to run throughout the day, and even those that are supposed to run every Sunday for example. (they all re-submit themselves by the way).
what is happening at the moment is that all the jobs seem to run on startup regardless of their scheduled times (see attached file). We changed over to the alpha from a vax about a year ago, and have maybe rebooted 3 times since going production.
I will put in a "stop/queue/reset sys$batch" in the startup job to see if that has any effect.
I guess it isn't so critical as we normally only reboot a few times a year, but it is a nuisense.

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
Did you check the operator log file of the system ? May be some unexpected time changes were done.
Do you use a time server ? Which one ?
fwiw

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
Thank you for posting the results of the queue display.
If you prevent the queue from autostarting, it would be helpful to see a queue display FOLLOWING a reboot (along with a display of the system time stamp at that time).

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
Turn on LOGIN AUDITs to see when the jobs are starting. This will confirm the (subjective) system date and time. If there's a bug (which is very doubtful) the audits will prove a job starting before its start time.
To check for entities that might be releasing jobs, try enabling audits for queue access, or put an AUDIT ACE on the queue.

Re: batch queue on startup 7.3-2
In regards to your question Wim, I recently put in a NTP time server, but the problem with the queue started before that, so I don't think that it is related.
Thanks again for your time and input.
