A member in SYS1.PROCLIB is started via operator command. When I insert a JOB statement as the first record, the system executes the member as a job (which allows me to use instream data, for example).
This works well for plain old console START commands, but when I internally issue a START command for the same member, and pass a program token in the MGCR parameter list, then MVS 1.8 starts the member as a plain old started task -- and then jobfails it for the "misplaced JOB statement". I don't see this behavior documented in the JCL reference or the Authorized Assembler Services Guide (not saying it isn't there, just that I don't see it). Is this WAD? -- David Andrews A.
