The problem is that CAS9 and CAL7 are defined as "sub systems", like JES2. When a START command is issued, the command processor compares the name of the started task with the names of the subsystems. If the name being started matches a subsystem name, then the command processor implicitly adds a ,SUB=MSTR to start the JCL under the master subsystem. You can get around this by issuing the commands as follows: S CAS9,SUB=JES2 S CAL7,SUB=JES2 to force the command processor to give the START command to JES2 instead of MSTR. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
