JOB Command
the current data file. If the transfer fails, the job remains on the current data file
and/or collector.
COPIES number-of-copies
specifies the number of copies to be printed. A job must be in the hold state
before its copies attribute can be changed. The range for number-of-
copies is 1 through 32767. The default is 1.
DELETE [ ! ]
deletes a job from the spooler.
If you enter a JOB DELETE command on a job that is currently printing,
Spoolcom might indicate that the job has been deleted before it actually is.
This is because the supervisor can delete the job only after the print process
has stopped printing the job.
If a qualifier list is used with the DELETE subcommand, the user must
verify each deletion. Enter Y or y to delete a job.
If DELETE ! is entered, the user is not given the opportunity to verify each
deletion. When deleting by job number, the ! has no effect.
FORM [ form-name ]
specifies a form name for the job. A job must be in the hold state before its
form name can be changed. A form name is composed of up to 16 letters,
numbers, and blanks.
The default name is all blanks.
HOLD
places the job in the hold state. A job must be in the hold state before most
attributes can be modified.
To remove a job from the hold state, use the START subcommand.
HOLDAFTER [ OFF | ON ]
sets the hold-after-printing flag on or off. HOLDAFTER or HOLDAFTER ON
causes the job to be placed in the hold state after it finishes printing.
HOLDAFTER OFF (the default specification) allows the job to be deleted after
printing.
LOC [ #location ]
specifies a new location for the job. The job must be in the hold state before its
location attribute can be changed. If the #location parameter is omitted,
then #DEFAULT is the new location.
