Changing the number of jobs running simultaneously in a job queue

 

The QBASE subsystem is shipped with a job queue entry for the QBATCH job queue. This entry only allows one batch job to run at a time. If you want more than one batch job from that job queue to run simultaneously then you need to change the job queue entry.

To change the number of jobs running simultaneously from a job queue, use the character-based interface. Command: Change Job Queue Entry (CHGJOBQE)

Example: The following command allows two batch jobs from the QBATCH job queue to run at the same time in the QBASE subsystem. (This command can be issued at any time and takes effect immediately.)

CHGJOBQE SBSD(QBASE) JOBQ(QBATCH) MAXACT(2)
