Reading the API, I would say no. Two flags control the name:

SPAWN_SETJOBNAMEPARENT_NP - If this is on, then the IBM simple job name
is the name of the parent process.

SPAWN_SETJOBNAMEARGV_NP - If the above is off, and this is off, then
the simple name is going to be based on the path parameter, which is
the name of the executable that is running. If the above is off, and
this is on, then whatever is passed into ARGV[0] is used, however,
there is this blurb later on.

The first element in the array, argv[0], is automatically set to the
name of the program. Any value specified for argv[0] during the call
to spawn() will be overwritten.

Folks:

From an RPG program, I use the SBMJOB command to start up some client
job
that is to connect to a server. In this command, the JOB keyword
allows to
specify the job name, and you may programatically construct that name
to
what you need it to be. I have a server side RPG program, that uses
the
spawn() API to launch child processes or jobs. But the spawn API
names my
server-side jobs with the same name as the program that it spawns.

In this case, is there a way to specify or construct the job name
with
which it will run to spawn()?

Thanks!
