  • 1.  I need to submit several maybe 30 ad hoc jobs in a sequence.  What's the best way to get this done?

    Also is there a way to automatically add all the jobs from a pds?

    Hi Ronald

     

    From the following link:

    Run ad-hoc sequential jobs

    Last update February 23, 2018

    Objective

    Users often request from one to six ad-hoc jobs to run one after the other as a stand-alone application. Each job name is 8 characters in length.

    Solution

    The following is a sample application that builds a sequence of jobs based on data supplied via a USER1 parameter on an event trigger.

    APPL CYBER
    JCLLIB 'CYBER.JCLLIB'
    J1='%USER1(1:8)'
    J2='%USER1(10:17)'
    J3='%USER1(19:26)'
    J4='%USER1(28:35)'
    J5='%USER1(37:44)'
    J6='%USER1(46:53)'
    IF J1 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J1
     RUN ANY
    ENDJOB
    IF J2 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J2
     RUN ANY
     AFTER %J1
    ENDJOB
    IF J3 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J3
     RUN ANY
     AFTER %J2
    ENDJOB
    IF J4 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J4
     RUN ANY
     AFTER %J3
    ENDJOB
    IF J5 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J5
     RUN ANY
     AFTER %J4
    ENDJOB
    IF J6 = '' THEN JUMPTO JDONE
    JOB %J6
     RUN ANY
     AFTER %J5
    ENDJOB
    JDONE:
      EXIT
     
    I hope this documentation suits your need
     
    Thanks and best regards,

    Hi, 

    I think the easiest way is just to build a normal application and event and then trigger it. The application can probably be built in less than 5 minutes using cut and paste/repeat options.
