>In fact, there's no guarantee they'll run in the order submitted. Depends on the JES setup. Many shops probably still have a "serialization" job class in place, a job class which only ever has a single initiator started to serve that class.
So, jobs will be executed in the order they are queued to that job class for execution. If in addition -- but this is not very likely to be nowadays -- only a single converter/interpreter is started in JES(2), then the jobs are quaranteed to be queued in the order they are submitted. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
