Relationship to the /*ROUTE XEQ statement

If the /*MESSAGE statement is in a job that also contains a JES2 /*ROUTE XEQ statement:
  • Placing the /*MESSAGE statement before the /*ROUTE XEQ statement directs JES2 to send the message to the operators at the input node and the execution node.
  • Placing the /*MESSAGE statement after the /*ROUTE XEQ statement directs JES2 to send the message only to the operator at the execution node.
