SelectScheduler

Select the scheduler used for batch job submission. It tries non-graphical selection of the scheduler, attempting to get version information from the scheduler in order to check for successful selection, and if unable to get the information, it then displays the Select Scheduler dialog box, waiting for you to complete the settings.
