JES2 exits (if you want to write / support them) can also help do this without having to change JCL. Of course there are products like MVS Solutions ThruPut Manager that have a CLIST like language to do the same sort of control (with vendor supported JES2 exits behind the scenes doing the work). $$$ and overkill for what you are asking, but I thought I would mention it.
Do you have to share spool? It shouldn't affect your sysplex pricing or whatever other discount you are getting. You could always NJE jobs over if you need to or scheduling packages can submit the job on the desired host. Depending on what the LPAR is used this could be the best option.
