Usage Guidelines
The scheduler-sort-primary-order and scheduler-sort-secondary-order actual destination attributes work together in scheduling jobs and have these interdependencies:
- If scheduler-sort-primary-order is set to fifo, the scheduler-sort-secondary-order is cleared.
- If scheduler-sort-primary-order changes from fifo to a value other than fifo, scheduler-sort-secondary-order must be set to some value at the same time on the same command or an error occurs trying to set scheduler-sort-primary-order.
