DASDBILL2:

Yes I know about the option. My question is why would anyone want to have it allowed.
Trying to resolve operator problems would be a nightmare.
How can a operator figure out which job to cancel?
As a follow on say operator cancels job aaaaaa and aaaaa is an online system . The "other " job aaaaaaa was a was data base restore.
Both would be grounds for firing in a shop where I worked.

Ed,



Duplicate jobnames are allowed or not allowed at the discretion of the customer. There is now a parameter to allow duplicate jobnames' running simultaneously. Those shops that do not want havoc can opt not to use the new parameter. All shops are not identical.

I am somewhat surprised that you indicate that duplicate jobnames are
to be allowed. I have worked in a few shops that job naming stand is
frozen and it would wreek havoc if a duplicate jobname were to be
allowed running at the same time.

If you can live with JOB1 and JOB2 having the same jobname and you

This is true only with JOBDEF DUPL_JOB=DELAY. More and more JES2
shops these days are implementing JOBDEF DUPL_JOB=NODELAY to
provide function similar to JES3 DUPJOBNM=YES functionality.
