You can use the work selection (WS=) parameter on the L(nnnn).JT(m) or L(nnnn).ST(m) statement to cause an NJE transmitter to select files based on their size. This allows you to optimize NJE transmissions. For example, by dedicating some transmitters to large files and others to small files, you can ensure that small files are not always forced to wait for completion of large file transmissions. You can set the limits based on the size in cards, lines, or pages, depending on whether the file is cards or page-mode or line-mode data sets. If you specify both page mode and line mode, a job must fit within both limits before JES2 will select it. For example, if you specify

L21.ST1 WS=(LIM/),LIMIT=0-5,PLIM=0-5

JES2 selects the job only if the output consists of a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 5 pages and lines.

The following example shows how to set up two transmitters, the first one for large files, and the second for small files:

L23.ST1  WS=(LIM/),LIMIT=0-*,PLIM=0-*     /* all files can use  */
L23.ST2  WS=(LIM/),LIMIT=0-100,PLIM=0-5   /* reserved for small */
