System and method for executing job step, and computer product

摘要

A batch processing system includes a plurality of executing servers (20, 30,...) and a scheduling server (10). The scheduling server causes the executing servers to perform distributed execution of a batch job. The scheduling server selects (S11) one executing server to execute the first job step in the batch job. The selected executing server executes the first job step and selects itself or another executing server (S12) to execute the next non-executed job step. This process is repeated until the last job step is executed.
