We wrote code, using the job scheduler APIs, to hold any entry not
already held, and log those held to a file. Later we can run a
command to release all job scheduler entries that are in the file.

We have hundreds of job schedule entries. An untold number of them
are always on hold. When we do an HA switch from PROD to BACKUP we do
not want ANY of the job scheduler entries on PROD going active.

Could you post the code for that?
It would certainly help those in small shops doing WRKJOBSCE *PRINT and manually putting things on hold and take them off hold later.
It might make for a great article too.

We use the SAVOBJ QDFTJOBSCD, HLDJOBSCDE *ALL *ALL method then just RSTOBJ to return to the way it was. (Chuck mentioned this as well.)
