Adding job queue entries

 

A job queue entry identifies a job queue from which jobs are selected for running in the subsystem. Jobs started from a job queue are batch jobs. You add a job queue entry using the character-based interface.

You can specify the following items in a job queue entry.

• Job queue name (JOBQ)

• Maximum number of jobs that can be active at the same time from the job queue (MAXACT)

• Order in which the subsystem selects job queues from which jobs can be started (SEQNBR)

• Maximum number of jobs that can be active at the same time for a specified job queue priority (MAXPTYn)

Command: Add Job Queue Entry (ADDJOBQE)

Example: This command adds a job queue entry for the NIGHT job queue (in the QGPL library) to the NIGHTSBS subsystem description contained in the QGPL library. The entry specifies that up to three batch jobs from the NIGHT job queue can be active at the same time in the subsystem. The default sequence number of 10 is assumed.
