RE: ILE questions: activation groups

It depends.... Are they the same job?

If Yes....  (same job executes both programs at specific times) then....

It depends.... Did you reclaim the AG after the first program ended?


Don't confuse "program" and "job".  They're not the same thing.  Signing on
to a workstation starts a job that remains active until you signoff. You can
run many programs in this job. Submitting to batch starts a new job that
remains active until the program ends.

Bob

If program A starts at 2pm and ends at 4pm and runs in AG
'ABC' and program B starts at 3pm and ends at 5pm and runs
in AG 'ABC'.  Do these 2 programs actually run in the same
AG called 'ABC'?  TIA.
