Submitting One Job

To submit as a batch job one member of a data set, specify the name of the data set followed by the name of the member enclosed in parentheses.

Example
To submit the job in the member JOB1 in data set JCL.CNTL, enter: `SUBMIT jcl(job1)`

To submit a number of jobs at once, specify the list of data set names in parentheses, with each data set name separated from the others by a comma.

Example
To submit the jobs in data sets JOB5.CNTL, USERID.SIX.JOB, and member JCL.CNTL(JOB1), enter: `SUBMIT (job5,'userid.six.job',jcl(job1))`

You can specify the data sets a job uses for input when you issue the SUBMIT command. To identify the input data set, specify the input data set's name following the data set name that contains the job. For this form of the command to be valid, the input data set must have a descriptive qualifier of DATA.

Example
To run the job in data set JOB5.CNTL, and to use the input data in data set MYDATA.DATA, enter: `SUBMIT (job5,mydata)`
