Re: A Job Queueing Problem

[John Earl <johnearl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Consider using two subsystems, S1 and S2 where:

S1 has a MAXACT = 1 
   Q1 is attached S1 
      Q1 allows 1 job at a time.

S2 has a MAXACT = 2 
   Q2 is attached S2
      Q2 allows 2 jobs at a time.
   Q3 is attached S2 
      Q3 allows 3 jobs at a time.

You would not have to change any of the SBMJOB code in end users program,
rather just create a new subsystem, add the desired job queue entries to
that subsystem, and rmove those jobq entries from the existing subsystem.


HTH,

P.S. Don't forget to add the new subsystem to your system startup routine.  :)
