Problem is we don't know which resources he is talking about.  Then again
perhaps neither does he. It may or may not be datasets - could be CPU,
storage, tape units, printers -- did I forget anything??

Subject: Re: Production Jobs contention with Test Jobs

Not sure, but why are test jobs using the same datasets, VSAM files, or 
IMS tables as production jobs?  Shouldn't test be using test and 
production using production?

But as others have replied, with the correct job naming convention and 
the correct messages (WTO's) being issued an automation package can get 
rid of the test job.
