INITIATION Class Attribute
The INITIATION class attribute specifies whether jobs from the class are available for
execution by the scheduler.
OFF
specifies jobs from the class are unavailable for execution.
ON
specifies jobs from the class are available for execution.
Consideration
The scheduler assigns the attribute INITIATION ON to a class added without the
INITIATION attribute.
Examples

Note the adoption by the class of the default attribute INITIATION OFF.
