Types of Nodes Network Job Entry (NJE) Formats and Protocols SA32-0988-00 |
|
NJE uses the following terminology for the nodes that comprise
an NJE network.
The execution node may not necessarily be the destination node. If, for example, a user submits a job specifying that the job execute at one complex and job's output be printed at a different complex then the complex where the job runs is the execution node and the complex where the SYSOUT prints is the destination node. If no SYSOUT destination is specified, then the origin node and destination node are the same by default. Figure 1 illustrates the different types
of nodes in an NJE network. The network is composed of 3 nodes. If
a user submits a job at node 1 to be executed at node 3:
Figure 1. Sample NJE Network
To transmit an NJE transfer unit to a complex other than the user's installation (a remote node), the user issues a command or submits a job specifying a destination node name. The destination node can be either directly- or indirectly-connected to the originating node. In the network depicted in Figure 1, if NODE1 is the originating node, NODE2 is a directly-connected node to NODE1, and NODE3 is an indirectly-connected node to NODE1. |
