RE: Hold ALL jobq's

Steve, I was looking around through TAATOOLS & did not see anything.

This got me to thinking, maybe there is a reason that Jim Sloan hasn't
created this command. We might run into some trouble trying to hold all
jobqs.

I would think that you may want to be selective on what was held.

If the needed jobqs all are in a particular subsystem, then one option
would be to make sure that the subsystem isn't restarted.

Another thought would be to handle things in the startup program prior
to starting up the system. Do what needs to be done first in the
startup program, then bring the system up.

Just some thoughts.

Thanks.

subject: Hold ALL jobq's

I'm writing a UPS monitor program and would like to hold all job queues
before I shutdown the system so that jobs do not automatically start
running
when the system is restarted. Does anyone know of a command or program
that
will hold all job queues without my having to create a list of job
queues
and read through the list.

Something that could be called from a CL pgm like HLDJOBQ *ALL would be
nice.

Thanks,

Steve
