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)
