I used JOBGROUP to run a series of jobs I use for cloning my environment.   
Works very well.

//mygroup JOBGROUP 'Clone xxxxxxx->xxxxx',      
//      ERROR=(RC>4),ONERROR=FLUSH               
//jobaA GJOB                                  
//jobB GJOB                                  
//         AFTER NAME=jobA,WHEN=(RC=0)       
//jobC GJOB                                  
//         AFTER NAME=jobB,WHEN=(RC<=4)      
//jobD GJOB                                  
//         AFTER NAME=jobC,WHEN=(RC=0)       
//jobG ENDGROUP

Hi

Is there anyone who have started taking the advantage of JOBGROUP ?

I am still trying to understand this functionality.

Since I see the JOBGROUP statement being used in JOBCARDS as well also the 
manual says about running a set of JOBS run together.

What does it mean by running a set of JOBS together ? Is it like executing in 
parallel ?

Apology for my ignorance

Jake
