To retrieve all the spool files associated with the same job simultaneously into the same destination file, specify:

GET jobid.x

where x can be uppercase or lowercase. All the spool files are transferred together and put into file jobid.x. The following line appears between each retrieved JES spool file:

!! END OF JES SPOOL FILE !!

This enables you to easily find the end of each spool file.

You can also specify a data set name to send the files to, such as:

GET jobid.x data_set_name

All the spool files are put into the file named file.name. This eliminates the need to retrieve each spool file separately. For example,GET J3456.X retrieves all the spool files for JOB03456 and puts them in a file named J3456.X.
