RE: running batch jobs from QINTER -- MIDRANGE-L

Alternatively: Use QUSRNOMAX which will run the job in QUSRWRK. That's
more or less what that queue was delivered by IBM for.

The bigger consideration is what memory the job is using. Running in QINTER
it most likely be using shared pool *INTERACT. When run from QUSRWRK it
will use *BASE (all as defaults from IBM). I don't know how intensive this
job gets but is sounds like a better fit for QUSRWRK that QINTER.

If you want the commands needed to split this work out in QBATCH (as has
been suggested) or change the memory the job runs in contact me privately.

Use jobq QTXTSRCH

Then wouldn't it be better to create a new JOBQ under QBATCH that is
*not* single threaded?

Running batch work in an interactive subsystem is just a bad idea.

Subject: running batch jobs from QINTER

Is there any performance issue at all
running batch job in QINTER session. the job will take about 20 seconds to
run,

I would make it in a loop to run every few minutes. until I complete the
view that would negate the need for this run.

I would have it close itself every night and a scheduled job kick it off in
the morning.

The reason I dont want to put this in batch is because, the batch queues are
single threaded so you can't hold up the others. and there are jobs that
need to run before the daily IPL - if they dont the machine won't come up.
So am very afridai to mess around there.
