Add Applications to the Environment

You can add batch system applications and user-defined applications to the environment.

You can also add multiple instances of some configuration and batch client applications running on a batch server. Some run-time manager applications cannot have multiple instances. If you attempt to add an instance of a run-time server that is present in the environment, an error message appears.

When you have multiple instances of configuration and batch client applications running on a batch server, you must specify a unique name for each. Instance names (12 characters maximum) should describe the purpose of the application.

Application names, including instances, appear as icon labels in the Environment Display dialog box. They are also listed in the Runtime Application Display dialog box.

When you add an instance, a unique name is automatically assigned. You can use the Environment Editor to change the name. Instance names within the batch system must be unique. If they are not, an error message appears.
