My solution in 1988 was to set the job class in exit 6 based on time, the number of tape drives (up to 3), the TCAM queue requested if any and type of user. If the system knows what job class is allowed, I felt the system should set it and not bother the user with one more thing to remember. I believe the exit is in file 432, Philips Mods on the CBT tape.
