Does anyone have any thoughts/ideas about what they do during a maintenance (for example, LSF patching) to disable recdef jobs? What we've found is that, as lawson is going down and coming up as part of, for example, a technology patch, these jobs will 'sneak in' and activate then when stoplaw gets run, the job(s) go into needs recovery. Most Supply Chain jobs, for example, can be easily recovered but there are some jobs (MA126 and others) that go into needs recovery and can't simply be recovered as the issue is 'deeper'. So we wonder what others are doing to avoid this from happening. Thanks for your thoughts.
(Since these jobs are in gen tables, my first though has been to run a script that will change the values of certain jobs to disable them at the time but wonder if there's a simpler way. Note: We have tons of these recdef jobs so turning them off/on, one by one, would be a royal pain.)
