RE: SMBJOB - with delay

I've only used AJS and just added a DLYJOB(##) as part of the job stream if I had any timing issue. Looking at the base JS, I guess it doesn't work that way.

I assume the 2 job submit suggested below would work if the jobq was single thread.

Or, just wrapper the original job in a CL with the delay in there.

Are you able to submit two jobs instead of one ?
If so create a cl with a DLYJOB of 5 seconds and submit a job to run that
program followed by the program you want to run.

John,

Originally, was told the sbmjob would work, which it does most of the time.
This is a very slight timing issue.

A CL with a DO loop would work and is probably the simplest to implement.

Calling a pgrm to return the future date and time would also work, but not
guaranteed as the DO loop.

Rob,

The reason for the separate job is you can't hold the AJS job while it

running, can't hold yourself, nothing to do with authority.

Maybe I'm being dense (a very good possibility!), but I'm still not seeing
why you can't just use a DO loop around the HLDJOBJS, which was Rob's
*actual* first suggestion, which he dismissed out of hand because he
figured you would already be using it if you could.
