The CPPD Subsystem

The Cobwebb Server subsystem (CPPD) runs all the configured automated jobs required for your Cobwebb Document Management environment to run successfully.

Starting / Ending the subsystem will start/stop all subsystem processes, do not use *IMMED when ending the subsystem as any process running (see Notes below) may not complete correctly and also damage to objects can occur e.g. email or faxes in transmission will be terminated. Use STRSBS CPPD or ENDSBS CPPD manually or include them within your own routines.

Depending on your Cobwebb Document Management environment you will see some of the following jobs running in Subsystem CPPD when you type WRKSBSJOB CPPD:-

Notes:

1.If you have Cobwebb Fax then you will see a Job Name for each Fax Description that is Online in the Work with Communication Lines.

2.If you have entries in Work with Folder Monitor then you will see a Job Name for each Program Name that is Online.

3.If you have entries in Work with Job Launcher then you will see a Job Name for each Program Name that is Online.

4.If you have entries in With with Spool File Monitor using a different Data Queue from SPLMON then you will see a Job Name for each Data Queue that is Online.
