The overnight processing sends messages so that we know it is running normally. If a message is not received when expected, it could mean that processing is taking longer than usual, or that something has gone wrong.

* But keep in mind that occasionally we do not receive one of these emails, even when nothing has gone wrong. It could be a timing issue, and Domino was brought down before the message could be sent, or ?

==EOD starting (2:15 3:00 5:00 6:30)==

The first message shows that the end of day has started at the expected time (1AM). (Warehouse supervisors can delay the end of day processing to 2AM, but this has not happened in several years.) It also gives the estimated time that the following email should be received. I included them, so we wouldn't have to remember, or look it up.

==Daily overnite processing ended Normally==

This message is sent about 2:15AM and means that EODDAILY has completed normally. Keep an eye on this time. If it starts to get closer to 3AM, either it fill have to optimized, or EODSAVE will have to be set to a later time. If this is not received, then EODSAVE could have cancelled the program when the system was put into a restricted state.

==Full backup is starting==

This message is sent at 3AM, when the backup job is submitted by the job scheduler. The system will then go into the restricted state.

==All systems are back up==

This message is issued at about 5:00AM by the program that starts up the system and back ground programs. It is issued both when the overnight program calls it, and when called by the batch time limit. If it is sent at about 6AM it could have been started by the batch time limit. You can tell by whether or not the following email is send.

==Backup has completed==

This message is issued at about 5:00AM by EODSAVE. If EODSAVE did not complete normally, and the batch limit timer brought the system out of the restricted state, you will not get this message.

==Statistics files rebuild is complete==

This is sent around 6:30AM by the program that has built the analytical files used in InfoNet, that are too complex to build on user request. To save processor time, and speed up response, they are updated as part of the overnight process. To make the system available to users sooner, they are processed after the system comes out of the restricted state. This message can be an hour later on the first of the month.

==Tape 999999 used for Power8 backup==

This message is not sent until 8:00AM, as it has to wait for Catapult to be available. Catapult builds this email based on the BRMS recovery report, and archives it to SuperServer.
