Prompts can be used as dependencies for jobs and job streams. A prompt must be answered affirmatively for the dependent job or job stream to launch. There are two types of prompts: predefined and ad hoc. An ad hoc prompt is defined within the properties of a job or job stream and is unique to that job or job stream. A predefined prompt is defined in the scheduler database and can be used by any job or job stream. Resource Resources can represent either physical or logical resources on your system. Once defined in Tivoli Workload Scheduler database, they can be used as dependencies for jobs and job streams. For example, you can define a resource named "tapes" with a unit value of two. Then, define jobs that require two available tape drives as a dependency. Jobs with this dependency cannot run concurrently because each time a job is run the "tapes" resource is in use.
