Functions
F3–Submit Submits the job to the scheduler for execution. (F3 is the same as the
BATCHCOM command SUBMIT JOB.) After you submit the job, to alter
its attributes and change its selection priority, use the functions on the Job
Info screen. You can delete the job if it is not executing or suspended. You
can further control the job using the functions on the Job Status screen.
For example, you can suspend or delete the job if it is executing or
activate the job if it is suspended. To inquire about processes started by
the job, use the Job Inquiry screen.
The scheduler deletes the job after execution unless it is a recurrent job.
If you submit the job without attributes (other than the mandatory IN), the
job adopts these scheduler attributes (to display these scheduler
attributes, use the Scheduler Info screen):
DEFAULT-CLASS DEFAULT-OUT
DEFAULT-EXECUTOR-PROGRAM DEFAULT-PRI
DEFAULT-MAXPRINTLINES DEFAULT-SELPRI
DEFAULT-MAXPRINTPAGES DEFAULT-STOP-ON-ABEND
The job is scheduled for execution as soon as you submit it unless
delayed by a time attribute, the HOLD attribute, or the WAITON attribute.
Time attributes are AFTER, AT, CALENDAR, EVERY, and WAIT.
When you submit the job, NetBatch-Plus enters its number in the No field.
You can use the number instead of the job name to identify the job on this
or the Job Inquiry screen.
The scheduler assigns job numbers consecutively in the range 1 through
9999. If the number is already assigned to a job, it uses the next available
number. After job 9999 is submitted, numbering begins again at 1.
Numbering also begins at 1 whenever the scheduler is started with the
F10–Start function on the Scheduler Info screen.
