Increment a job's next start time (increment/job or incjob)

Advance the start time one cycle.

The INCREMENT command will advance the start date by one cycle. All the conditions and constraints are applied in this process. For example, if the definition calls out for skipping weekends, then the increment command will also skip weekends. This command only applies to jobs that have a rescheduling method specified.

increment/job job_name [/qualifiers]

UNIX/Linux Format:

incjob job_name [-qualifiers]
