The NEWJOBQ command creates a new job queue.
Operation Notes |
 |
Limit is the only queue controlling property. The jobs in
the queue are sorted by their INPRI. In case of a tie for INPRI,
jobs are sorted by their INTRO time. The global limit takes precedence
over individual queue limits. That is, even if a jobqueue has a
slot available, if the overall limit has been reached, jobs have
to wait till one of the jobs finish or the global limit is increased.
When a global slot becomes available, the next job is picked from
among the eligible jobqueues (those which haven't yet reached their
individual limits).The job queues persist across reboots, provided
a START RECOVERY is done. Any other system starts will cause the
job queues to be deleted and they will have to be created again.This
command is available in a session, job, or in BREAK. Pressing [Break]
has no effect on this command. This command is not allowed in the
SYSSTART file.
SM/OP capability is required to execute this command.
